The breakfast was a true highlight. It included moet champagne and a wide variety of delicious foods. the staff demonstrated professionalism and attentiveness consistently. i appreciated the hotel's prime location. It allowed easy access to many central attractions by foot. the rooms felt spacious and featured elegant, classy decor, contributing to a relaxing environment.
Navigating the hotel layout involved a rather long walk to the room, positioned towards the back. The design felt somewhat unappealing.
