The room was a good size and very clean. Breakfast was good value.

The lift was indeed very small. I struggled to fit my luggage inside, a definite inconvenience. The staff at the front desk did not offer exemplary service. They seemed indifferent, a stark contrast to what one expects from a hotel of this supposed caliber..
