Excellent Hotel Experience
convenient locationfriendly staffgreat selectionfresh omelets
I found the location to be quite convenient. It was a short walk to the metro station, easy to explore the city. The staff was very helpful and friendly (especially the receptionists!). When I return, I will stay at this location again. The breakfast provided a great selection of options. I especially enjoyed the fresh omelets that were made to order. The spa and swimming pool were fantastic. I really enjoyed that there were saunas there too! The gym had several machines.
The only minor inconvenience I experienced was the limited number of electrical outlets in the room. It made charging multiple devices at once slightly difficult.
