Friendly staff, comfortable room. It was Good Friday with the hotel packed with families. Breakfast felt so rushed, don’t understand why it didn’t follow weekend schedule as it was a holiday. From food to glasses, all needed to be constantly replenished, unfortunately not fast enough even though the staff tried. It felt disorganized and overwhelming to the staff.

Nice room, subpar experience

Nice room in good area. When we arrived we were puzzled by there being a towel on the toilet. We later realised that this towel was ment for the sink (which was leaking). There was no handsoap in the dispenser nor in the shower. Bathroom fan was loud and was not possible to turn off.
