The room was fairly spacious, and the breakfast setting was very pleasant, although the selection was somewhat limited. As for the service, I often felt it was superficially friendly but somewhat perfunctory (not all front-desk staff). During my stay, two of my packages went missing. I asked the front desk three times, and each time I was told they were “checking,” but I never received any follow-up. Housekeeping was also not timely: over my three-night stay, one day the room still hadn’t been cleaned by 5 p.m., and on the other two days, no cleaning was done.
