The location was convenient for getting around. My room had a good layout with plenty of space to work. I found the bedding comfortable and the room was quiet. The soundproofing worked WELL.
The door slammed shut every time. I could not slow it down. I think the shower design is not good. It was hard to avoid flooding the bathroom. It took time for my credit card block to be released. They blamed the bank AGAIN.

This hotel impressed me! the junior suite was spacious. i found useful amenities, including a nespresso machine with complimentary capsules. the bath products provided were from a reputable brand. the staff addressed all requests i made. They were very helpful and polite.
My room faced an interior courtyard. It lacked natural light. this. i suggest asking for a room facing the street if sunlight is important.
