street noise impractical bathroom layout
the staff were friendly and helpful .
my "beautiful double guest room 1 king" was not as soundproof as i expected it to be. street noise was noticeable throughout the night and the bathroom layout was somewhat impractical with limited counter space. also, i found the in-room coffee machine difficult to use, even after consulting the instruction manual.
