Quiet Comfort Near the Water

comfortable bed thoughtful touches

The location worked well as it was away from the central chaos. A short bus ride got me to the central station. The spa and gym were nice amenities to use to begin the day. The extra-large bed was very comfortable. Attention to detail was obvious.

The room lighting was quite dim. This. Brighter lights would be useful.

The apartment has a very spacious layout with a well-equipped kitchen. It made longer stays easy. The living area included comfortable seating and a large television. I liked the bathroom. It featured modern fixtures and a rainfall shower, and was very clean.

Excellent Stay with Great Amenities

delicious meals needed equipment bike rentals

The onsite restaurant provided delicious meals. The gym contained almost all needed equipment. I liked that I could ask for an iron and some coffee capsules, and everything was brought right to my room. The hotel offers bike rentals, which include the price.

House cleaning was not detailed as they just took the trash out and did not clean the room or make the bed and sheets.
