The air conditioning did not work and this bothered me to no end. I paid good money for that room. the staff did see the room got hot and offered a tired old fan, like that helps.
The room was spacious (i stayed in a superior room!). It had tea and coffee facilities. The christmas decorations looked Very nice.
The phone in my room did not work. I had to go to reception for assistance.

Wonderful Hotel Stay
helpful staff quality coffee fresh juice
The staff were helpful . They quickly addressed a minor issue I had with the room lighting. Breakfast included fresh juice and quality coffee. I found these details quite satisfying.
The elevator had a sign indicating the alarm was not working. This caused slight concern.

The Luxury Double Room was spacious, boasting a very comfortable bed and pillows. The shower room was spotlessly clean, equipped with bathrobes and slippers. I found the room well-stocked with necessary amenities.
