The hotel was lovely and the staff were really nice and friendly. The hotel was in the perfect place for my needs, with quick connection to the airport train and plenty of restaurants or shops around the area. It feels a shame to deduct a star for this, but the light switches in the room were a triumph of form over function, it was extremely difficult to work out what they did as they all rotate through several positions, without any labelling or marks. I sometimes just used my phone torch instead! Also the teabags in the room were very unusual flavours which could happily be replaced with more regular green or black teas. So bring your own teabags and a torch and you'll love it!

breakfast variety is not huge, but service and quality are great ! we really enjoyed breakfast. The service overall was great. Location is not in the center, but very close to public transportation. The main issue was that the room was very small, and it had a window to a wall). Since we stayed for 1 night it did not bother us, but make sure you have a balcony room (MUST)
