Good but some glitches

7.0

Really nice decor, architecture, and general atmosphere. Very comfortable bed, and such friendly and helpful staff.

QR code for room service wasn't connecting; in-house phone to access room service not answered. Had to go to restaurant to order the room service, which defeats the purpose. Ordered a smoothie for an apparently complimentary breakfast (charged for this), which I saw was poured from a juice bottle ... not actually a smoothie at all.

Clean, comfortable bed and well stocked kitchen

It is very noisy when the door is open and hot when it is closed. No aircon but there are lots of fans which does help. I would not stay here in summer.
