    elegant decor
    delicious breakfast
    limited storage
    cramped gym
    need for hooks

    Elegantly designed interiors create a welcoming atmosphere and the friendly staff enhances the experience with exceptional service throughout the stay. A highlight was the breakfast buffet, offering a variety of delicious toasts and fresh options that made dining a delight. However, improvements could be made with limited storage options in the bathroom, and the need for more hooks and towel racks. Additionally, the gym, while functional, felt slightly cramped for the number of guests during peak hours.

    The air conditioning in the room struggled to keep up, making it uncomfortably warm in the afternoon.

    spacious rooms
    cooling issue
    poor customer service

    Spacious rooms with strong water pressure.

    We had trouble with the cooling situation in our room. it just wasn't working well enough. The temperatures were uncomfortable by late afternoon, and the dining area felt excessively warm too. After raising our concerns, the response from the staff was disappointing, and it seemed like they didn't take our complaints seriously.
