    low pressure

    The staff were friendly. The cozy room featured a fantastic park view and a good breakfast with a variety of options that exceeded my expectations.

    the shower pressure was quite weak.

    fine view
    captivating ambiance
    disorganized check-in

    great experience but some room for improvement

    The view from our room was fine, overlooking a beautiful park. The restaurant's ambiance was captivating, and our dinner there was superb.

    The check-in process felt a bit disorganized.
