I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, but the lack of a window made it feel a bit closed off. The bathroom was huge though, with a lovely bathtub. The bed was comfortable, and I appreciated the option to open the windows for some fresh air. On the downside, the hill location led to some stunning views but was tiring to climb at times.
