thin walls inconsistent air conditioning
the breakfast buffet offered many options to choose from.
The walls seemed thin. I could hear noise from other rooms (it was very distracting). also, the air conditioning didn't work consistently. Someone came to fix it, but it broke again shortly after. these issues definitely impacted my stay negatively.

modern hotel stay
varied selection convenient location
The breakfast selection was varied and abundant. the staff was polite and always ready to assist! i also appreciated the convenient location. It allowed easy walks to the city center.
i found the walls quite thin, so noise from adjacent rooms was noticeable. this sometimes disrupted the peaceful atmosphere. it was quite annoying.

the room contained both a rainfall shower and two separate sinks. there was also a spacious balcony with seating overlooking a quiet area. the provided shampoo and conditioner added convenience to my stay.

charmed by unexpected delights
spacious room double glazed windows helpful staff
the superior double room was quite spacious. double glazed windows ensured a very quiet night. i also found the helpful front desk staff quite approachable. the hotel location made it easy to reach points of interest.
i found that the outdoor pool was a bit small considering the number of guests. some guests dove into the pool, made relaxing difficult. i think the hotel could improve by adding signs prohibiting diving. a strange odor was noticeable near the pool as well.
Dining

The hotel's buffet restaurant offered a great variety. I really enjoyed it. breakfast stood out with its excellent offerings. the al a carte buffet dinner was delicious. I forced myself to try several desserts.
