The location is convenient. It is on a quiet street between the city center and a park. The staff members were super friendly. They offered assistance when needed. The garden had fantastic blooming trees.

The room was very hot . I found the hologram and virtual receptionist ineffective. It was difficult to get the assistance needed. I had to get the pillows and soap myself from the after hours area.
