I also noted the hotel's greener initiatives, like rewarding guests who opt out of daily cleaning, which aligns with a growing demand for sustainable stays; plus, the inclusive breakfast is a real perk. It's a balanced package for those seeking convenience and a conscience in the city center.”

breakfast optionsuseless thermostatcar park vista
The breakfast buffet had enough options I didn't starve.
The thermostat seemed purely decorative because the room temperature remained stubbornly fixed at 'slightly chilly'. the promised city views turned out to be more of a 'car park vista' I did not request.
