Overall my stay was okay. Since the hotel is located by the ring road it’s very noisy. The customer service is good. Breakfast options are limited, you have to pay for a bottle of water because they don’t provide drinking water with breakfast.

Good room but service can be improved

Great room! Highly recommended.But service can be improved (hotel promised to pick up, but nobody came. Called them and they simply gave me driver number. Called driver, nobody picked up). Waited for almost 15min at parking lot and I gave up. Lucky I had local number to try to reach them. If you are foreigner, then ensure you have a way to contact them. Nobody will be waiting with name sign as typical hotel pick up does.
