updated equipment friendly staff good choice

this year marks our second visit, and it was even more magical. i adored the ease of access to nearby attractions. the updated gym equipment allowed for wonderful morning workouts! friendly staff. the breakfast buffet offered so many delicious options each morning.

the room service menu felt a little limited. i hoped for a wider selection to enhance our evenings. maybe next year there'll be a bit more choice?!

slow coffee machine access system

the self-check-in wasn't working, so that was a complete waste of time. breakfast seemed chaotic and the coffee machine was slow. plus, the access system glitched, locking me out of my room for twenty minutes. not ideal at all, i must say.

underwhelming stay, issues needing resolution

faulty air conditioning grimy windows

the location proved acceptable for city explorations.

The room temperature control was faulty. The air conditioning failed to cool the room adequately. moreover, the promised river view was obstructed by grime on the windows. I found bird droppings particularly displeasing. furthermore, the kettle provided was notably dirty. I had to request a replacement.
