The breakfast service stood out with a varied and satisfying selection. The hotel offers daily cleaning services, so it's a plus. The air conditioning in the room worked well. I could always rely on a comfortable climate inside, really nice.
Our room decor looked a little dated. The need for modernisation is there.
