the hotel arranged for a smooth early check-in. my room included a modern bathroom. it featured complimentary water bottles replenished daily. i found a good glass terrace where i could savor wonderful views.
the room was smaller than i had hoped. there was a noticeable lack of sound insulation. i could easily hear corridor noises and doors slamming. the walls was thin, and this disrupted peaceful moments.

same floorgenuine welcometasty optionsquiet escape
I discovered our rooms were arranged on the same floor, a very comforting detail! the reception team was always ready to assist, their welcome felt so genuine. our room was quite nice and neat, and the breakfast offered many tasty options. the rooftop terrace gave a lovely view. It became my own quiet escape.
the room was cozy though several very small items were missing, such as tissues.

The breakfast is located on the fifth floor. It gives a nice panorama. it included a wide variety of options for both meat eaters and vegetarians, including several kinds of cheese and hot dishes.

The room was quite small. I also found the cleanliness lacking in certain areas. The breakfast was pretty basic. A greater variety would have improved things. The view, though decent, didn't quite live up to expectations..
