Big room, excellent view and staff are friendly. The down side.. no sign about toilet and we had issue, eventually they did fix it. Cleaning- need to ask for .. we did not know we need to ask, once it was cleaned but amenities were not fill out so we need to ask manually. Happy to stay but can be improved for better in the future.

Everything was great, except the person for my check-in, seems that he was not really in the mood, and I felt I was bothering him more than anything else. But besides that, a perfect stay, the room was clean, amenities too, and the breakfast surprised me (in a good way) I was not expecting it.
