The staff was helpful, guiding me with local transport options.

The room REALLY lacked soundproofing. I could hear EVERYTHING from the street below. the lack of a mini-fridge in the room was a huge inconvenience. I had expected one to be available.

the superior double or twin room balcony had a spacious layout and the daily cleaning met a high standard , with fresh towels. the rain shower was particularly good after long days exploring. the hotel offered an express coffee and snack service for a fee , though i didn't utilize it.

i found the walls thin, and heard noise from both inside and outside the building , which sometimes affected my sleep.

The staff was very helpful with directions to nearby attractions. i found that the room included a rainfall shower (it was very relaxing after a long day). i also appreciated the free coffee available in the lobby. It was a nice perk.

the room faced an inner courtyard, so natural light was somewhat limited.
