dim lighting broken machine
the underground parking was free. that was acceptable.
The room lighting was way too dim, and it made it hard to see. there wasn't a safe in the room. I found that inconvenient. the coffee machine didn't work well with tea bags. That was disappointing too.

I liked the courtyard area, it was relaxing. My large room had a king bed and a comfortable sofa. Staff were so friendly. Breakfast was handy, it helped me start the day. I appreciated the outdoor spa area, including hot tubs and a sauna.
The bedroom lighting relied on lamps so the room was a little dark.
