The room was nice and big. It had all the amenities i could ask for. it even had a cooking hob and dishwasher. the bed was big and comfortable. there was ample storage.
the entrance to the room is through a rather smelly restaurant, and i felt awkward. when i got to the back end of the restaurant and opened the door towards the rooms, i was welcomed by a sewage smell that was hard to shake. it wasn't felt in the room though, so once i was in, it was ok. there was no safe in the room.

the entrance through a restaurant felt strange. also, a strong sewage smell was present in the hallway leading to the rooms. this smell was not noticeable inside the room, a relief. however, it did impact the initial impression negatively.
