Pros:

Sehr nettes hilfsbereites Personal. Gute Anbindung mit der Straßenbahn in die Stadt es dauert etwa eine Stunde. Nicht weit vom Flughafen. Sehr sauberes Zimmer. Von der Lautstärke des Casinos haben wir nichts mitbekommen. Es ist ein Einkaufszentrum etwa 5 Minuten zu Fuß entfernt.

Cons:

Es ist ein Casino
