Wonderful Hotel Experience

The room was clean. It featured a comfortable bed. I appreciated the modern decor that maintained historical elements. The breakfast buffet was enjoyable with many choices.
The bathroom lighting could have been brighter for makeup application. I found it a bit dark.

The room featured modern cleanliness and a comfortable bed. Windows overlooked loading areas; it was near the Millennium stadium. The TV faced the bed, though only one side could view it fully.

The large hall accommodated breakfast and dining very well. The breakfast buffet featured many choices. I found the breakfast items overcooked, though comfortable beds made up for it.

The room was very small. There was no luggage rack so I had to put my case on the floor to unpack, how annoying! The breakfast was like a Spanish all-inclusive with the buffet style. The classic self-serve rotating toast machine was frustrating. The breakfast items were also overcooked.
