What guests report
View
Best: 6th floor rooms with sea views, balconies overlooking harbor and Ferris wheel; Avoid: inner courtyard rooms and basement-level spaces with no natural light
Bed & mattress
Comfortable in renovated rooms; some standard rooms have two singles joined instead of proper doubles; quality mattresses with multiple pillow options in newer sections
Bathroom & water
Renovated rooms: spacious walk-in showers with good water pressure; older rooms: tiny stalls (60cm x 60cm) with plastic curtains, weak pressure, musty odors, small sinks
Wi-Fi
Free throughout; reliable in public areas but inconsistent in some rooms, requiring lobby access for work
Breakfast
Exceptional value and quality; extensive buffet with fresh pastries, eggs, meats, fruits, artisanal options, coffee bar; worth waking early to experience
AC / heating
Generally reliable in renovated rooms; some older units run excessively loud; few rooms lack AC entirely or have temperature control issues
Elevator
Unreliable
Local knowledge
Book parking in advance if driving; free street parking nearby requires searching but available within 5 minutes walking distance
Request a room above the 3rd floor for better views and quieter experience, away from lobby noise
Breakfast crowds peak 8-9am; arrive by 7am or after 10am to avoid long queues and service delays
