A Mixed Stay. Some Issues Noted

small room disruptive noise
I found some aspects of my stay disappointing. The room was quite small. I felt a bit cramped. the noise from other guests was disruptive. The walls seemed thin. I could hear conversations and movement late into the night. It made it hard to rest properly.

a pleasant visit

good breakfast attentive staff dinner experience location connection
i found the breakfast quite good. there were a lot of options to choose from. the staff were very attentive and pleasant. there is a taxi stand right in front of the building..
the dinner at the restaurant did not meet my expectations. i also noticed the location, while good, was not perfect. we had higher expectations for the on-site dining experience. we thought the location could be better connected.
