I reported a problem which was quickly attended to. Breakfast was good, like all of these places avoid the pastries, the fresh fruit, eggs any way you like and other accompaniments are good & they try to cater for all (pork dishes are seperate). The evening menu is a bit ordinary but there are plenty of other places nearby to dine. For sightseeing the hop on hop off bus has a shuttle stop in front of the hotel. There is a nearby train station which is walkable, it goes to the airport and is clean and safe.
