the staff helped book our ride back to the airport. that part went fine.
the coffee machine in my room didn't work. i was really looking forward to a morning coffee. also, the sauna in the men's area wasn't working. they made the one in the women's area unisex, which seemed odd and inconvenient.

I found the restaurant to be AMAZING!!! The service I received was great, and the food quality was great. The spa facilities provided a much-needed respite after a long day. I also found the breakfast selection quite varied.
The location was not ideal. I was not able to walk to the city center easily. The room lacked air conditioning. It made the space somewhat uncomfortable during warmer periods. the gym required an extra payment. That surprised me.
