mediocre stay , some issues present
thin walls poor coffee
the staff cleaned our room well , which was appreciated.
The room i booked was not the one pictured , it resembled a hostel more than a business suite , especially given the high cost. the breakfast selection was basic and overpriced . The coffee tasted poor , and the bread and jams were not excellent. thin walls also meant i could hear children in the adjacent room clearly.
