There was a balcony however i wouldn’t even call it that as it was tiny, had no view and was gated off connecting to something.

Problems guests raised

Raised most: the lift, in 59 of 292 reviews.

The lift59 of 2921 in 5 reviews

The only downside side is that it has a teeny tiny elevator that only you and your luggage will fit in.

Google, April 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest

The lift broke down for a short period but only for one of the days and these things will happen so we were not worried

Problems in the bathroom9 of 2921 in 32 reviews

The bathroom didn't have a door, which made the stay uncomfortable; I'd never seen a transparent shower before.

The bathroom should have a door so the water doesn't leak...
