The room had canal views. It was a superior double room. The room also included a couple of armchairs. I found the staff helpful and knowledgeable.
Some of the restaurant decor seemed a little tired to me.

some issues impacted the stay

noisy roomlimited cocktail
I stayed in a canal view room. it got quite noisy at night, which i found frustrating. the room itself felt a bit run down.. i expected better for the price. also, i couldn't get the cocktail i wanted. The bar lacked key ingredients. it seemed like they should either train the staff better or remove it from the menu..

Nice Stay

warm greetingspacious roomgood mealwell-stocked bar
The staff greeted me very warmly upon arrival and provided helpful information. The room was spacious and equipped with various amenities, and I found the bed to be very comfortable. I booked a package that included breakfast and dinner, and I had a good two-course meal. I particularly appreciated the well-stocked barwith a variety of beverages to choose from.
I noticed some minor wear in the hallways. It could use a bit of updating.
