the breakfast WAS good with plenty of options. The lady serving it made sure i had everything I needed! my room was clean. fresh towels and linen were given DAILY.

THE hotel charged the same rate for my child as they did for adults, I found this unreasonable. most hotels offer discounted rates for children. there were NO additional benefits, so i felt disappointed.

My room was quite small, i found it difficult to move around. The website photos misled me. There was no table or chair. The air conditioning performance was inadequate. This caused considerable discomfort.

helpful receptionconvenient locationgreat neighborhoodmissing chair

the hotel had friendly, helpful reception staff. i found the 24-hour tea and coffee station cute, especially because there were no such facilities in the room. the location was great, providing easy access to major sites. i also appreciated the neighborhood that provided food and many restaurants.

The room was quite small. It lacked even a chair to sit on. i think adding this basic amenity could improve the experience. it was like poor value for the money charged for a standard double room. i would probably choose another option next time.
