Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were upgraded, which was a nice surprise, but the noise from neighboring rooms disrupted my sleep. On the bright side, the room had an iPad to control various features, which was convenient.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were a bit noisy, waking me up at 3.40 in the morning and continued for at least an hour. They didn't meet the standard I would expect from a 4 or 5-star hotel. On the bright side, there were talks about upgrading me to a better room.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was modern and spacious, but the noise from the neighboring room disturbed my sleep. The location was convenient for walks along the canals, but the dining options were limited with an early closing time. The service was good overall, with great amenities, but there were issues with customer complaints.
I stayed at this hotel and overall had a decent experience. The rooms were nice and clean, though not at the level I expected from a 4 or 5 stars hotel. The service was a bit inflexible when I had complaints, but they did manage to order me a glass of wine through room service. The location was a little out of the way, but there were wonderful walks along the canal paths nearby. The dining was good with lots of choices, but there were some issues with closing times. The facilities were adequate for my needs.
This hotel offers a mix of positives, such as having iPads to control the aircon and window blinds in the rooms and the possibility of upgrading to a better room, but there was a significant disturbance early in the morning. The service is a bit inflexible when handling complaints, and there is inconsistency with room service. However, the location provides opportunities for wonderful walks along the canal paths, offering a glimpse of the historic city. The dining experience has both its moments of greatness and disappointment, with ample food choices at some times, while at others, the service seems lacking in apology and options. The facilities overall are good, but there are some operational issues noted.
