Great experience, comfortable and great location
Pros:

Excellent staff service. With near freezing temperatures during the whole week, the staff kept the rooms warm, switching on aircon before we returned to our rooms. The breakfast was also delicious, wide variety to select from. Superb service by the restaurant staff.

Cons:

The key kept losing synchronisation with the room. Staff was super helpful to find me an alternative room.
