The staff were helpful and accommodating. They promptly addressed a minor issue with the room lighting. The breakfast options were plentiful, with fresh fruit and pastries available.

The soundproofing could have been better, as noise from the corridor was occasionally audible.

attentive staffsmall windowpizza shop's exhaust fan

the staff was very attentive, even when they were busy.

my room was too hot, mainly because the only window that could open was small. also, it was right next to a pizza shop's exhaust fan, so it gave off heat and a strong smell. i had to ask neighbors to turn off their music around midnight, so that was very annoying.

The staff allowed us an early check in. They also facilitated a very quick room change. This helped us get ready for a nearby wedding. They were helpful and friendly.

The bathtub had marks. The shower drain emitted a very smelly odor. The bed was not very comfortable for me.
