My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, equipped with all necessary amenities, but they were showing signs of needing renovation. The service was friendly and helpful, although I had an issue with a surprise currency conversion charge on my card. The location was excellent for both work and relaxation, near the sea and convenient for transportation. The dining experience was impressive with a varied and delicious breakfast buffet. However, the lack of renovation in the rooms and unexpected charges slightly impacted the overall satisfaction.
