“Superb”

It is clean, the view is amazing and it is the beds are comfortable. The staff was very nice to me when I had problems with my payment. There is a social area with sofas where people hang out. There is a kitchen, but I didn’t use it. The showers were hot and good pressure, but they don’t offer shower gel, shampoo or even a tower, you have to have your own.

“Fair”
