Mixed feelings about THE stay

convenient locationlimited shelf spacepoor food

The hotel's location near the park was convenient. it allowed for easy access to the city center.

The room design lacked practicality. There was limited shelf space and inadequate lighting, which proved inconvenient during MY stay. Also the evening food quality was lacking and below expectations for the price.

water dispenserconvenient locationdirty bathroomair conditioning

the location was very convenient, being a short walk to the marina and shops. i found the filtered water dispensers on each floor a thoughtful touch. it eliminated the need for plastic bottles.

i was disappointed to find the bathroom not as clean as expected, a bug was coming from the drain. also, the hotel has a policy of stopping the air conditioning, the room was hot.

the location proved very convenient for exploring. the extensive free parking was also beneficial (a definite plus!).

the room felt somewhat tired and showed a need for maintenance. i noticed the ceiling light over the coffee maker was not fitted. (a minor detail, but noticeable)

the location was ideal. the hotel is very close to the marina (i could almost smell the sea!). secure parking added peace of mind. the breakfast (especially the croissants) offered many choices.

the bathroom mirror showed some wear.
