the staff was friendly, made the check-in process smooth.
this room i had was sold as beautiful, but i found it very standard. the bed was too small and the mattress felt worn. the bathroom fixtures looked OLD with exposed pipes and a weak shower. i think there could be improvements.

The room was supposed to be beautiful. It was not. I found the bed rather small and unsupportive. The bathroom seemed like a relic, complete with exposed pipes, old toilet and the world's worst shower.
