the receptionist was very friendly and helpful (it really made the check-in process smooth).
the underground parking had a low clearance. we couldn't fit our car there, so it was an inconvenience. also, the beds were too soft, and the breakfast was lacking taste.

The staff was helpful and I got assistance with extra towels I required.
My room showed age and there was a leak at the window, this was disappointing. I also found that my room safe was not functional and this was not satisfactory. I observed poor cleaning standards at breakfast with dirty floors.
