Pros:

The stay at Excelsis was excellent. The staff were so accommodating and eager to make the stay comfortable. The food was good, I recommend their chicken fried rice. Breakfast was well prepared as I ordered off the menu, the Spanish omelette was magnificent. All in all a great first stay. Keep up the great work.

Overall quite alright but choose the Garden rooms!
Pros:

Generally I liked the place. in the garden it is quiet and nice to sit and have a beer. The second room (standard towards garden) i was in was also good from its size and the quietness.

Cons:

I started up with the single room and it was on the road side. It is really too loud. It is alor really a bit cramped (small). I paid locally extra to be transferred to the garden-side standard-room.
What also is almost a deal-breaker for me when i return is that there was no proper coffee for breakfast. only instant coffee. I will check next time before i come if they did not fix the coffee machine i will not come.
