8/10 Very Good

Disappointing.
Location is good. No parking, we had to park in the mall and the overnight stay was expensive. Music could be heard till 1am. Breakfast room is too far and very complicated.

8/10 Very Good

Nice hotel, large rooms but really long walk up and down lots of stairs to get to rooms, not easy with luggage. Breakfast was a disaster and certainly not what you expect for the price you pay. Took an hour and 10 minutes to finish breakfast and waited 25 minutes to just get coffee.
