Everything was great! The beds were comfortable, I got a good night's rest after a long while. The breakfast was pretty good as well. Also the location was suitable for our needs.

We weren't told about the showers in advance (you have to pull the "button" above) so that was a bit of an issue. But the staff were helpful and explained it after we asked about it.

Breakfast is really good and the location is very convenient

The hot water took long to reach the taps. I would shower but the water seemed not to remove the soap entirely

Spacious room, excellent breakfast and friendly staff

Lighting in the room can be improved to increase brightness,but his may vary depending on someone’s preference. A bedside lamp could be provided as an option.

Frontdesk, security, cleaning, and kitchen staffs are all very nice and welcoming. Bed is comfortable. Wifi works well. Meals offered by the restaurant are decent in terms of both price and taste.

Not really anything. I was told it might take a while for the hot shower water to come out but I did not try so can't say if it's true.
