I stayed in a premium room. it was spacious and well kept! the air conditioning worked efficiently, a huge plus during the warmer days. the soaps and shower gel provided were from a quality brand. I did like the extra touch.

the parking was not directly at the hotel. i had to walk a bit. it was not too bad, but it was not ideal carrying my luggage.
