The good thing about the honeymoon suite are the views of the hills, trains, industrial area, supermarket/gas station and ferries, also has a spa bath and the balcony. I say that room can be used as a virtual background for MS Teams Meetings at work. I also managed to get a late check-out and referrals for calling a shuttle from the hotel to the train station, along with a helping hand, getting the 23kg luggage upstairs. ||However, whoever put those energy efficient LED circular lights didn't do a good job with the finishing touches, it look like a cowboy renovation.
