The room I stayed in was spacious enough for my needs. The staff were very helpful. I'm really grateful for their kindness. The location is good, public transport is close to the hotel.
The wait at reception was very long. The housekeeping didn't respect my "do not disturb" sign. They entered my room while I was out. This was a huge violation of privacy and I was upset.
