Excellent Stay

heated floors smooth check-in

The hotel room had heated floors in the bathroom. Check-in was smooth, and some nightlife and dining options were within walking distance. The room had a very nice aesthetic and comfort too.

This meant the shower lacked a tray. The room was soaking after a shower. I had to use a shower curtain instead of a screen.

The breakfast restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere. Breakfast was good. There was also a wide variety of options available to guests in the restaurant, allowing them to select diverse food for their requirements.

poor lighting unfriendly staff

The room I got was pretty small. The lighting was not good, and overall, I just did not see a lot of luxury. I also found the staff rather unfriendly. The rooftop was not always open for us hotel guests.
