Not a fan - too many little things wrong that, on their own, might not have been important but built up to make our stay quite unsatisfactory (and we did report them to the front desk). 1) parking is mainly in the underground park but we just couldn’t make the lift work with our room key; itmeant an uphill trek with all our luggage. 2) no info in the room and generally poor signage around the hotel. You want a wifi password? Call reception. Times of breakfast? Call reception. Location of pool? Call reception. Location of laundry? Call reception. I found two people on separate occasions wandering round just looking for ice machines 3) no working fan in bathroom 4) no teabags provided in room 5) laundry out of action. This is a deal breaker when you’re on the road for several weeks and make a point of selecting a hotel mainly on the basis of being able to do laundry 6) aircon so noisy that we couldn’t sleep with it on 7) hairdryer cable so short I had to kneel on the floor to dry my hair (and I’m only 5ft) if I also wanted to use a mirror 8) pool is possibly the tiniest I’ve ever seen in a hotel 9) breakfast was ‘meh’ - oranges at the bottom of the bowl were clearly moldy On the plus side, our room was clean and the beds comfortable and the water on the counter had citrus to flavour it - nice touch. But we’ve stayed in many many hotels at this price point around the world and this one stands out as being below expectations.

Overall decent stay. Some of the receptionist staff are less than favorable. We only had issues with 1 in specific, all others were great. Nice place and mostly clean but did notice some mold in the shower. WiFi did not work as stated it would and working remotely while staying there was impossible. Otherwise decent stay.
