Amazing hotel, enjoyed it a lot
Pros:

Very efficient, great hospitality

Cons:

Was a few imperfections for the price, found some dark hairs in the bathroom On arrival.

Off topic but the observatory not sure the inclusion or link but in my opinion over priced and a bit scruffy, again a hair preset this time in the complimentary popcorn.
