The room came equipped with a smart TV, which was a nice feature after a long day of sightseeing. I had some trouble with the connection initially, but the staff was very helpful in sorting it out swiftly, allowing me to relax and enjoy some shows.

Modern Bathroom Experience

The bathroom had a lovely shower and was overall quite nice. Though there was a slight issue with the smell, the cleanliness made up for it. I appreciated having big, clean towels and essential amenities provided during my stay.

Comfortable Sleeping Environment

The bed in my room was incredibly comfortable, which is essential for a good night's sleep. Despite the bustling bar below, I managed to sleep soundly with the earplugs provided. Overall, it was a cozy retreat for a night in the city.
