Summary: There was a very disappointing mistake by the hotel when I arrived. I had paid a full extra night to check in early after an early flight, but my room was not available. The hotel refused to reimburse me, but provided free breakfast for the rest of my stay. The hotel was clean, staff friendly after my initial encounter, and in an excellent location for exploring the city. Unusually strict pool booking procedure bearing in mind there was no one in there?
