fresh options excellent terrace view private paradise tight parking garage outdated tv kitchen area

the breakfast, oh my goodness! it had so many fresh options and the terrace view were excellent, i swear! the staff were super nice and helpful, always there when i needs something. i really enjoyed my studio garden view it reminded me of my own private paradise! i found a hidden gem with the garden, so tranquil and beautiful.

the parking garage was a real challenge, it was so tight and limited that i had trouble finding a spot. the tv in my room felt a bit outdated, it did not even have access to streaming services, what a bummer. i saw some ants running around in the kitchen area, not the best surprise.

really nice place!

spacious room modern kitchen beautiful garden

The rooms were very spacious, and the shower too was great. each room includes a kitchen with a microwave oven. the location is quite close to the center. A short walk. the hotel is surrounded by a beautiful garden with seating areas.

the ads gave the impression that the balcony was private. actually, it is shared with the whole building. a man came onto it one night and started smoking. the smoke filled our entire unit.

Service

fresh juice balcony breakfast room kitchenette sound insulation clumpy pillow dated room

The breakfast was a highlight. It featured fresh juices each day. sitting on the balcony for breakfast was beautiful. i enjoyed the large room with a kitchenette..

the lack of sound insulation was an issue, as my room was near reception. the pillows felt old and clumpy. the room seemed a bit dated to me..
