fantastic stay

large room rooftop pool city views excellent value

I found my standard room impressively large and it included a balcony. A great addition. the walk-in shower added a luxurious touch. the rooftop pool had amazing city views, i spent a lot of time there. the hotel provided excellent value for the quality it delivered.

the plates at breakfast sometimes ran out, a minor inconvenience.
