The hotel has some nice features, like a lovely rooftop restaurant and an excellent breakfast buffet that really stood out for its variety. However, I had some issues with the service, especially in the restaurant, where the staff seemed quite unhelpful. The location is a bit far from the main tourist attractions, so be prepared for some travel time, but the cleanliness of the rooms made up for some of the shortfalls.

The hotel has a decent location with easy access to public transport, and my room was quite spacious and comfortable during my stay. Unfortunately, my check-in experience was quite frustrating, with a long wait and issues with room allocation. The breakfast didn't meet my expectations, both in terms of quality and price. Overall, I found the service a bit lacking, especially during check-in, but the comfortable room made up for some of that inconvenience.
