smooth taxi superb location continental breakfast leaky sink stained bed sheet unavailable drinks
The staff helped arrange a taxi from the airport. It was very smooth! The location is also superb. It is central! Breakfast features a continental style with fruits, yogurt, and teas.
The bathroom sink was leaky. I saw some stains on the bed sheet. Ordering drinks was impossible between 11 am and 4 pm, despite the hot weather, not great!
