Excellent Experience

comfy bedwalk-in showermolton brown toiletriesseamless check-in

The check-in process was seamless with a lovely receptionist. My room featured great style. It also included a beautiful big comfy bed. The bathroom had both a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. Molton Brown toiletries were provided as well.

The walls seemed rather thin, because I could hear some noise when people were walking by.
