"This was a genuinely excellent stay. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and well managed. And all the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.
I found my room to be clean, comfortable and quiet, and I was able to sleep well, which makes a huge difference after a tough day of travel.
My one complaint is regarding the scent in the room. As soon as I walked in, I could smell strong, artificial fragrances in the room - I didn't see any plug-in type air fresheners, but it was that kind of odor that just wouldn't go away.
There is growing, well documented evidence linking many synthetic fragrance products to adverse health effects, including respiratory irritation and increased cancer risk due to compounds such as phthalates and other volatile organic chemicals. Beyond the health implications, their use also raises a practical question. If a room is truly clean, there should be no need to mask odors with fragrance at all. I found the room to be quite clean, so I think the need to add those synthetic fragrances not just unnecessary but damaging.
Otherwise, I enjoyed the breakfast, and as I said earlier the room was comfortable and staff were really great."
