I appreciated the hotel's location. It allowed easy access to major landmarks. the staff showed courtesy and attentiveness. the provided breakfast met my expectations, a nice touch to begin the day. the hotel accommodated a late arrival through self check-in. This minimized stress on my arrival.

The tv screen was tiny. It detracted from my viewing experience. an additional luggage rack would have proven useful because floor space seemed limited. i needed to manage luggage more efficiently.

the staff helped us with ferries and personally showed us to the room. i liked that.

the hotel seemed dated. the pictures online were misleading and didn't reflect the actual condition. the walls were thin and i could hear everything! water got all over the bathroom when i showered, it was annoying, and i felt the price didn't match the quality. it was frustrating.

The staff demonstrated helpfulness. Breakfast was served in my room each morning. The location proved advantageous for accessing attractions. I found the provision of cake and prosecco for my birthday especially considerate. I felt the gesture was very thoughtful.

I observed the bathrooms required updates. The fixtures looked somewhat worn down. This detracted slightly from the overall experience. the cleanliness was acceptable.

the hotel generally needs money spent to bring it back to a good standard. i observed that the decor and carpets, though clean, showed wear with chipped tiles and stained carpets. some areas even lacked lampshades, a bit disappointing.
