5 asiaa, jotka sinun pitää tietää ennen matkaasi
💡The 'lobby smell'—a few guests have complained about a distinct, sometimes overpowering scent in the entrance.
💡The bathtubs in the Corner Kings fill from a hole in the ceiling, which is cool but can splash if you aren't careful.
💡The 'Swiss' part of the branding is subtle, mostly found in the service efficiency and some decor touches, so don't expect fondue fountains.
💡The gym is actually world-class with wet/dry saunas and a cold plunge, not just a closet with treadmills.
💡You can get a 'puppy playlist' for your dog if you bring one.
