minor issues

bottled water policy no smart tv
i wasn't thrilled needing to ring a bell each time i wanted to enter. it hardly feels like a fancy hotel when you have to ask permission. the bottled water situation was a real head-scratcher, too. you usually get free water at a supposed fancy hotel, but i got charged daily for replacements. it's just not a good look and feels cheap. honestly, no smart tv, so i could not watch netflix. that felt outdated for 2024.

The location was fairly convenient to access the main attractions. my room was a suite. It felt spacious. breakfast was a positive and provided fresh options daily.
The bottled water policy was inconvenient. I had to pay for replacements. i found it annoying that a bell was needed to enter. there wasn't a smart tv in the room that limited entertainment options.
