Adequate Stay with a Few Issues
slow elevatorspoor signage
The elevators were quite slow and poorly signed, I often had to take the stairs up to the lobby on the second floor. This was inconvenient, especially with luggage. I also found that the hotel only has a breakfast restaurant. For dinner, I had to go out, a bit of a hassle.
