surprised with the comfort, a gem!

The hotel had everything i needed. the staff were pleasant and helpful. the spa opening times suited my schedule perfectly! i found the fitness center well-equipped, it allowed me to maintain my routine. room service was prompt and efficient. I could always rely on them for anything i needed.
The noise of corridor cleaning between 8 and 9 am was disruptive. It made it difficult to sleep in. this early morning activity affected the otherwise calm atmosphere.

Underwhelming stay. Room discrepancies noted

room discrepancyunhelpful staff
The room i received differed significantly from what i booked. i expected a premium room, but the allocated room was smaller and overlooked a less desirable view. addressing this issue with the front desk proved difficult. They offered no resolution or compensation! this discrepancy overshadowed other aspects of the stay.
