a dreamy stay!

swift checkineasy reachconvenient locationnew room décor

i was on a brief trip and found everything smooth. the check-in process was quick and efficient. reaching the hotel from the airport was so easy via tram. the tram stops for lines 10 and 12 are conveniently located right across from the hotel. the new room décor was very nice.

the soap dispenser was slightly loose in the shower, which could be a minor safety concern.
