the hotel offered a grand feel with classy decor. the provided room was a good size and included air conditioning. breakfast included cooked and other options and plentiful tea and coffee. helpful staff assisted with all requests.
i encountered a periodic noise in the room throughout the night. i think it was due to the ac, even when it was off. a check and fix was requested, but it persisted.
