I found the breakfast selection diverse and delicious (especially the fresh pastries). The staff were very attentive, promptly addressing all my requests. The hotel's artistic design created a unique and inspiring atmosphere. I enjoyed the outdoor pool area. It had comfortable loungers and a relaxing ambiance.

My room lacked a full-length mirror, inconvenient. I noted that the soundproofing could be improved, as I could hear noise from neighboring rooms. The limited availability of parking at the hotel presented some challenges.
