Cons:

None of the soap dispensers in the bathroom worked. So next time please warn me so I can bring my own soap!
There is a cafe but it is not serving coffee or anyhting. What is the point?

Pros:

The location is good, clean and spacious room

Cons:

The room door didn't fully close such that there is too much noise from the corridor coming into the room. The glass shield in the shower/ bath lets water through to the floor causing a bit of a mess( water all over the floor) if using the shower.
