weak conditioning limited variety
The hotel present itself modern, i found that not everything worked as it should. the air conditioning in my double or twin room was quite weak. I struggled to keep a comfortable temperature during the day. also, the breakfast buffet was expensive, especially considering the limited variety compared to other hotels i have visited. i paid more than expected but got less than i hoped for. the fitness center also was smaller then expected.
