the location was excellent. staff recommendations for local breakfast and evening spots were helpful. the room was bright and clean. i especially liked the large shower. i will definitely return.
The room's soundproofing was not ideal. Noise from neighboring rooms was quite audible. this made restful sleep a challenge at times. i recommend improvements to the sound insulation.
