attentive staffwarm atmospherecomfortable roomdifficult accessrepetitive breakfastdark room
the staff was attentive. i felt so cared for at every moment.. the reception area had such a warm and cute atmosphere. the desk greeted me with a gentle smile. the family room was comfortable with spacious beds that ensured a restful sleep.
the location of the hotel presented a bit of a challenge. taxis found it difficult to access the street because it was so busy. it also sat on a hill, so walking was quite frequent.. the breakfast choices remained the same during my five days here. i thought some of the items were a bit too salty. some of the rooms felt rather dark, with views only of a wall.

The sauna remained unstaffed one evening so I could not book treatments. My room did not have a bathrobe. I also thought there could have been more than four hangers in the small wardrobe, a crucial amenity for a multi-night stay.
