Delicious Breakfast

The breakfast buffet offered a vibrant selection of fresh produce and gourmet coffee that truly started my day right. I particularly enjoyed the variety of cheeses and eggs that were prepared to perfection. It was a good way to fuel up before exploring the city.

Really good Room Cleaning

I was impressed with the high standard of cleanliness. Daily housekeeping ensured that my room was spotless and tidy, which enhanced my overall experience significantly. I love returning to a perfectly arranged afternoon retreat after a busy day exploring.

Great Shower Pressure

The shower in my bathroom was absolutely fantastic! The water pressure was strong and refreshing, making it a great way to recharge after a long day out. I especially loved the ample hot water supply that never faltered.
