**Rooms, Showers, and Toilets – A Pleasant Surprise!**
First off, let's talk about the accommodations. Having heard they recently underwent renovations, my expectations were cautiously optimistic. However, I was blown away by the fresh, modern vibe of the rooms. Not only were they clean and comfortable, but the thoughtful design ensured that even with a full room, there was a sense of personal space.Disappointing – Charlotte from United Kingdom (4/10)
