"On a positive note, the view is stunning. On a less positive note, the rooms are way smaller than advertised (7 by 3.5m is 24.5 SQM max vs advertised at 30 SQM for a suite junior). Not sure how they can get away with that. Room decorations are really basic but much better than the corridor (purple !) The hotel is currently under renovation but the sound proofing has not been considered. You can hear the TV of the neighbors, the doors being slammed etc. I clearly don't recommend it."
