The single beds were tiny. they seemed like sleeping on rocks, honestly. no proper divider separated the bathroom from the bedroom, which, let's be real, is just strange. shower was also uncomfortably small. I barely turned around in there.

The breakfast was really nothing special. The selection seemed limited, and the quality was just average. the lack of USB ports in the room was a real inconvenience. I had to juggle charging my devices because there weren't enough outlets available. It's a modern hotel. I think they could offer these.
