Great experience, will come back
Great hotel, fantastic staff. Loved the room, except it was not well-lit, especially in the area where the desk is. You can imagine it would be challenging to do some work if you're on a working trip. Other than that, it was a great stay. Will come back. I also left my wallet when I checked out. Lyka (reception) and the housekeeping staff were kind enough to keep it safe until I picked it up. Thank you
