The building is nicely designed but not properly maintained, The rooms and property is nicely decorated and the staff are kind and trained . the location is convenient and close to everything In room experience was poor, our fridge in the room was broken and the in room bar was also removed before hand, there was plenty of stains on the furnitures and the daily cleaning simply didn’t clean the bathroom properly, Also there not much view and you have to close the blinds if you need privacy, there is a very close building to the hotel and mostly you have visitors everyday
