Nice hotel and breakfast
HUONG, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clean and spatial. Staff friendly and efficient. Great breakfast. The only complaint is when the bathroom light is turned on it lights up the whole room through the glass partition between the bedroom and bathroom, so when one goes to the toilet at night the other person sharing the room may wake up also if s/he is sensitive to light.

Smooth check in. Room very quiet despite being next to lift. We booked a family room, room was small for a family of four, we were just staying one night before our flight so it was fine but would have been a struggle if staying longer.
