Reviews
Fair enough, we are 8o++ but still play golf and did not find ”at home”.
A hotel situated inside a shopping mall is a first for me. Once I had found my way around I enjoyed the convenience of being able to walk to various shops and cafes. Parking on first floor is limited but plenty of space on the upper floor.
Room was bigger than expected with kettle and tea/coffee.
In the breakfast room a young male employee was moving restlessly all the time. However, only a few customers were there.
It was quite disturbing. And it surprised me
