the breakfast buffet on the rooftop offered striking views of the city.
The room i was assigned had noticeable street noise despite being on a higher floor. This affected sleep quality. also, the gym equipment was limited. There were only two treadmills and one stationary bike, which led to waiting times during peak hours.
