convenient location excellent decor big room broken remote warm wine customer complaints
The location is quite convenient near the metro station and tram stops the decor is excellent and the condition is good. The room design was nice i liked the setup. The room was also relatively big i appreciated that.
The fridge in my room was not working so my wine was warm i did not like that. The air conditioning remote was missing upon arrival i received a broken one later. i felt there was some unprofessionalism regarding customer complaints.
