The room design was beautiful. It felt very luxurious. The gym had various equipment. Breakfast included a vast selection of well-cooked items. I especially appreciated the fruit selection.
The TV was mirrored. This made viewing difficult. The hotel eateries were difficult to locate! The bar staff needed training. Their English wasn't great.
