The staff was friendly (i really appreciated their attitude). My room was neat, clean and spacious. Daily room service provided great convenience. The restaurant offers a good selection of food and drinks. Cooked breakfast is available each morning.
The noise from the street was quite loud late at night. This made it difficult to sleep.

excellent hotel stay

clean roomdaily servicequality food
I stayed three nights and the room was very clean and serviced daily. there was no air con, just a heat thermostat. Even when turned off, the room felt very warm. i did open the windows at night, and there was some street traffic. i had dinner two evenings. The menu included a decent choice, and the food was high quality.
the room was very warm and lacked air conditioning so i had to keep the window open, but there were some loud cars going by on saturday night.
