on point service club sandwich
The room service was really on point. I ordered a club sandwich at 1 am, and it showed up faster than i could find a decent movie on tv.
the 'classic double room' turned out to be more 'cozy single for a hobbit'. i could barely swing a cat, not that i would, of course. it was all a bit cramped.

central location free upgrade lovely furniture
the hotel's location is special, very close to the city center. i particularly enjoyed the free room upgrade i received. the attention to detail in the room's decor and furniture stood out. the bathroom products provided added to the luxurious feel.
There was a slight inconvenience with breakfast timings. Information was only available on the 'breakfast in bed' card, which i didn't initially check.
