good breakfastsmall roomworn gym
the breakfast was good and offered a decent variety.
the room felt quite small, even though the pictures online suggested otherwise. i found the gym to be a bit worn, and one of the machines was out of order for a significant portion of my stay. housekeeping seemed to only replace towels but didn't do much actual cleaning.
