I truly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were immaculately maintained and cleaned daily, though a few more pictures would have been nice. The heating system could get a bit too hot, and it was challenging to control the room temperature. Despite that, the welcoming atmosphere was always a bit colder than the corridor outside.

The hotel room was equipped with AC, which was a lifesaver during the hot week of my stay, along with a walk-in wardrobe, plenty of lighting, and free Wi-Fi.
