The room was spotless; however, we had a problem with the water in the bathroom. It took us a long time to shower because, for some reason, the water would stop coming out, and we had to wait for it to start again.

Checking in was incredibly easy. The clear instructions, sent directly to my mobile, were perfect for someone like me arriving late at night and leaving early in the morning. The room itself was very spacious with a very and a comfy bed. The view from the balcony was truly breathtaking. I'd highly recommend it as a place to spend some quiet time and just soak in the views.
