i totally loved the breakfast! it catered to all family preferences. the rooms were very clean and housekeeping provided daily service, if needed.

upon check-in, the front desk staff said the parking fee covered 24 hours from arrival? but the parking policy runs from 1:30 pm daily until 1 pm the next day. i was charged an overstay fee, unexpected!

i find the seating area very modern. it is cute and i felt a good hustle vibe during breakfast time. the food and drinks had a good value for money in the evening. richard, at reception, was very helpful during the morning.

staff seemed unfamiliar with the changing date process. parking isn't free here. even if you pay, they often says it's fully booked and try again.
