The room is small and stuffy. The hotel is located next to a busy road and thus opening the window means putting up with traffic noise through out the night. The sofabed sinks in the middle and provides no support for the back.

This hotel is perfectly located right in front of the canal, offering a beautiful view that you can enjoy from your room. The rooms themselves are spacious and modern, with comfy double beds and a variety of lighting options to create different moods. The attention to detail is evident, from the amenities provided like a fridge and air purifier, to the little touches like a higher bathroom basin and plenty of hangers. Additionally, the staff here cater well to foreign guests, making you feel welcome and well taken care of.

All was great, nothing needs improvement.
