A decent hotel, some issues though

great locationspacious roomplentiful breakfastcramped receptionlimited viewlimited minibar
The hotel has a great location close to many attractions. My room, a Beautiful Room, was spacious. Breakfast on the roof terrace was plentiful, (I especially enjoyed the pastries).
The reception area feels cramped. My room faced a wall, a bit disappointing. The minibar only had water and soft drinks. I had to ask for a beer.
