king size bedgreat locationthin wallsair conditioner
the studio apartment offered all amenities i needed, it felt so complete. plus, the apartment had a super king size bed, it was massive and comforting. the location felt just right for a brief getaway, every attraction was within reach. it made moving around effortless.
My room had a problem with the air conditioner, it didn't work very well. the walls also seemed thin. This was a concern. these issues detracted from the otherwise nice experience, a pity.

stylish stay

modern furnitureheated floorscentral location
i appreciate the modern furniture. my room included heated bathroom floors, what a luxury. staff was always helpful, even arranging a taxi for my early morning trip to the airport. the hotel's central location made restaurants, shopping, and tourist sites very easy to reach.
the minibar was stocked, i wished there were glasses available in the room.
