A Decent Stay

welcome drinkscentral locationservice chargelacking attention
The hotel provided welcome drinks upon arrival, a nice touch. The location is central, and I appreciated the proximity to many shops and restaurants within walking distance.
I noticed a sudden 5% service charge added to the room rate on the final bill , which I found unexpected. The reception attention felt lacking , as no one assisted with luggage during check-in or check-out.
