Solid stay near the bus terminal

kind staffearly check-inclean roomrenovated room
I found the staff kind and helpful. They facilitated an early check-in and also provided an early breakfast (a gesture I appreciated). The room looked renovated and very clean. I was able to get proper rest before my early bus departure.
The Wi-Fi signal wasn't consistent. I experienced frequent disconnections.
Rooms

My room included two separate sinks and a rainfall shower. The blackout curtains worked effectively, maintaining darkness in the room. I found the bed firm and offered good support, contributing to restful sleep. A safe was available inside the closet.

The reception desk had staff available around the clock. I saw that staff members spoke several languages fluently. The bell service was prompt and efficient in handling luggage. The staff seemed generally attentive to guest inquiries.
Location

The hotel is about a five-minute walk from the main bus terminal. A train stop is nearby, providing access to and from the airport. This location is ideal for connecting to other destinations by train or bus (very convenient!). Taxis were readily available outside the hotel.

The breakfast buffet included many options, with fresh pastries and fruit. I saw that the gym included three treadmills and two stationary bikes. The pool area featured about twenty loungers and a shaded section. A small business center offered computer access.

The buffet breakfast had a good variety. I saw fresh fruit, pastries, and hot dishes. The lobby offered a lot of seating with sofas and tables, this was nice for meetings. The Wi-Fi in the lobby worked well and averaged 40-50 Mbps. My room was a Standard Double Room and it was clean.
The pool area could use better tidiness, I noticed.
