Pros:

Dużym plusem okazał się dla nas parking, który był strzeżony na terenie hotelu. Mogliśmy zostawiać wypożyczony samochód bez obawy, że coś się z nim stanie. Obsługa była bardzo pomocna

Cons:

Pokój na zdjęciach wyglądał na bardziej nowoczesny niż to, co zastaliśmy. Wymagał odświeżenia.Łazienka bardzo prosta, a z kosmetyków dostaliśmy tylko po małym mydełku. Wejście do hotelu jest utrudnione ze względu na remont całej ulicy.
