the beds are comfortable, i slept really well. the bathroom includes elegant design and nice appointments! the workout area has nice equipment too.
I booked a room expecting top quality, though there were some hidden costs. i was shocked by the unexpected deposit demand. It was not clearly mentioned. the receptionist insisted the rate was 'too low for two people', so that was annoying.
