stellar stay

convenient transportwelcome additioncarpet stains
i found the location advantageous with convenient transport links, specifically close proximity to the tram stop.
i noticed the room needed better attention to detail concerning cleanliness. there were some stains on the carpet, and it seemed a vacuuming was due. this was observed in the hallways as well, a detail i hope management addresses soon.
Facilities

this hotel featured a gym accessible to guests, a rooftop bar with panoramic city views, and spacious lounge areas conducive to relaxation or work, all meticulously maintained. the breakfast room was grand with good organization of the dining space.
Rooms
9/10
the room was well-appointed with wooden floors, and a very clean bathroom. the provided amenities worked well, and the soundproofing contributed to a restful environment (i had a quiet night's sleep).
Service
10/10
The staff interactions were pleasant and efficient. Lisa, in particular, was notably friendly and helpful. the breakfast service was streamlined with a wide selection of foods available, and the restaurant service upstairs was swift and attentive.

adequate stay but some issues

great selectionlong check-inundercooked dough
the breakfast had a great selection of food for those with dietary restrictions. gluten-free and vegan options were available.
The check-in process took a while. only one person was working and many guests were waiting. the lobster roll at the restaurant was also disappointing. The dough was undercooked.

breakfast qualityhelpful staffhappy smilepoor cleanlinessunstable wifilacking information
the breakfast had excellent quality. i enjoyed the omelette and fresh orange juice. the welcome staff at reception was very helpful. lisa, who leads the team, seemed happy.
The cleanliness could improve a lot, especially in the rooms. sometimes towels were not changed, and sometimes i received only one set. the wifi did not work in the rooms, i had no wifi in either of the two rooms i stayed in. i was not informed about the windows being cleaned. I felt exposed when someone was washing windows and looking in.

chaotic breakfast layoutpoor soundproofing
The breakfast experience wasn't what i hoped for. the layout was chaotic, and it felt overcrowded. getting a simple cup of coffee required navigating through a maze of people and stations.. it was quite stressful. also, the soundproofing wasn't great. I could hear noise from outside and other rooms, a constant disturbance.
