a haven of calm

soft towelsspacious bathroomtv signal
i found the bathroom particularly spacious with very soft towels. the bed offered such comfort, i slept soundly each night. i appreciated the ample space to move around, it never felt cramped at all.
the tv signal in my room sometimes flickered and pixelated, it was somewhat distracting. i wish the connection to the wi-fi was just a bit more stable.

Solid stay in the city

large roomwell-appointed spacefriendly staff
I thought the room was large for the area. I liked it was well-appointed. The staff seemed friendly and gave help when asked.
I found no on-site restaurant. Breakfast is available in the Club for certain members. I do not meet those requirements.
