mixed feelings about the stay
good coffeestreet noisetraffic sounds
the breakfast was good (especially the coffee).
the room faced the street, and the noise at night was quite disruptive. i found it difficult to sleep well because the windows didn't block out the traffic sounds. also, i missed having air conditioning.

Slightly Underwhelming Beautiful Room
dirty deskold hair
I booked a beautiful room, and it was quite disappointing. The cleanliness was questionable. I found someone else's old hair in the tub when I turned on the pumps. the desk was dirty upon arrival. I did not find it relaxing at all.
