The rooms were immaculate and spacious, with exceptionally comfortable beds that made for a restful stay. In-room services were prompt and efficient, adding to the overall comfort. The breakfast spread was quite good, offering a satisfying start to the day. The location is superb—centrally positioned and highly convenient for getting around. The heated pool was a wonderful touch, and the gym facilities, while basic, were sufficient for a decent workout. The only drawback is the parking situation—if you're bringing a car, be prepared, as finding a spot can be extremely difficult and largely a matter of luck.

Both night staff and day staff were super friendly and helpful. Even the security guard was nice. Bathroom and toilet are clean and very new and modern. Bed was comfy and very spacious room. There are USB outlets on the wall sockets for charging. There are free on-site parking but very limited numbers.
