the location is definitely a plus. It was easy to reach via the airport limousine. major attractions were very accessible from the hotel. the staff were kind.
the bed mattress was loud, it wasn't comfy either. It felt too springy. my sleep was not relaxing. the tv colors were set too dark. i could not change it, so it was impossible to watch anything.
