Liked: Cleanliness
Unfortunately the property is doing major renovations and were extremely loud right above our room. We were not advised about possible noise when booking, even though we booked just a week before our stay. Free continental breakfast was a joke. I wouldn't advise depending on it. We walked out and bought our own meal at a local cafe.
