the staff was friendly and helpful. breakfast was really good with various delicious options (i loved the fresh juices). it was easy to arrange uber pickups and drop offs from the hotel.
the hotel is near a supermarket and a liquor store, so the immediate surroundings were not very scenic.

amazing breakfastfresh qualitycomfy bedthin wallsblackout curtainsnoisy floor
the breakfast was amazing. the staff made it fresh each morning, and the quality was excellent. the room was nicely decorated. the bed was also really comfy.
The walls felt thin. i could hear noise from other rooms and the corridors. my room faced the outside area, but had no sheer curtains, only blackout ones so privacy meant darkness. the wooden floor above was noisy. Every step echoed.
