The main problem with this hotel is there is no staff manning the front desk/reception. Every time we needed assistance we had to use the iPad to video call someone who would try and help, this was not a great process. When travelling in a foreign country we like having the front desk to help assist with not just our needs at the hotel but their knowledge and tips navigating their city. The room itself is spacious and well configured.
