The staff was helpful and requests was sorted quickly. The hotel offers transport to the city center three times a day. I saw a wide variety for breakfast that included complimentary prosecco. Dinner selection was less wide, but the food was delicious.
I found some maintenance jobs were clearly put on hold. I noticed chipped and damaged doors.
