"Great Breafast. Clean place , front desk girl was nice but the manager wasn’t . We paid for a canal view and they gave us a roof , outdoor AC looking view . Manager offered us a. Upgrade ,because all of the canal views were gone, when we came downstairs after a 10 hour flight She said the upgrade will cost 140 euros more . Wish she had mentioned it before we went upstairs then came back with our luggage’s . I said no. We already paid high price. Then she offered a canal view but next day after some guest will check out at 11 But we had an early excursion so for another night wasn’t worthy to pack and unpack again . So we made it through the Roof view ."
