bus stop excellent lobby breakfast choice expensive loading closed restaurant poor support
the hotel included a bus stop right outside, so moving around was simple. the lobby looked excellent, I appreciated its spacious design. breakfast included a good choice of items, it was nice to start the day.
i found the electric car loading very expensive. the restaurant at the swimming pool was closed. i had trouble when i lost a part of our luggage, the staff seemed more concerned about procedures than my problem.

Average Stay, Some Issues Noted
poor soundproofing insufficient hooks
I experienced some issues . The main problem was the poor soundproofing. Noise from other rooms and the hallway disrupted my sleep. i found the lack of sufficient towel hooks in the bathroom inconvenient. There was nowhere to hang wet towels. These small issues detracted from an otherwise acceptable stay, sadly.
