The location was AMAZING. The hotel is just minutes from the Royal Palace. The staff was also very kind. We were able to check-in much earlier than expected. The rooftop balcony and greenhouse jacuzzi were exactly what I needed!!!
The room temperature was on the cold side despite adjusting the thermostat. It seemed like the cold was coming from the window. The sheets didn't fit the bed and kept coming loose when sleeping. I was quite disappointed at the size of the room.
