The staff are courteous, perhaps less effusive than some hotels, as english maybe a third language but there is no problem at reception. The location, 100m to centre and linked to large hot pool complex is wonderful. Our rooms (101 102 linked for our family of teenagers) were large (2 armchairs in each) modern and very clean, But the downside was the loud clatter of trucks unloading linen (etc) comencing from 4 a.m in the morning and going thru (at odd times) until 7 am. It was impossible to sleep through this and not an expected feature of a hotel of this quality. I suggest check all details of your rooms (and also try Liszt restaurant nearby... a fun and good vlue restaurant.
