the location was great! it was a short walk from transport links. the staff were very friendly and accommodating, i really appreciated that. our room was quite nice and comfortable for my short trip.
The restaurant was expensive, i thought the food was average. the room was too warm for my taste. That's just my personal preference. my first room had a strong drain smell. They eventually moved me.

fresh towels sim card welcome cocktail
The room included slippers and various toiletries. i found fresh towels every day which was very practical. the hotel provided a sim card for internet access and a public transport card. It helped a lot. they also offered a complimentary welcome cocktail and cakes.
The automatic lights in the room needed some adjustment. They kept turning off when i opened the door. it was a minor annoyance though!
