    really good service
    comfortable accommodation

    Service was really good, with warm, friendly staff and attentive valets. The fine view enhanced the experience, complemented by a comfortable bed and complimentary water, juice, and a chocolate welcome plate. The prime steaks were a highlight during dining.

    lack of privacy

    Stylish decor and great amenities

    I really enjoyed my stay, especially the fabulous decor and the super comfy room. The complimentary refreshments were a nice touch, and I loved that I could unwind in the shower and bath after a day of exploring. It would have been better if there were more chairs on the balcony for lounging.
