"Staff wonderful, breakfast varied, plentiful and tasty. Balcony, where I enjoyed my breakfasts, is in a good situation overlooking marina.
Hotel very handy for marina mall and metro.
I felt that the room was really designed for a business traveller in it's layout, but I was comfy enough.
What would stop me from using the hotel again would be the road and construction noise. Neither of which can be improved upon by the hotel, but, unfortunately, lack of sleep had a big effect on my holiday."
