We stayed in suite 713 for 5 nights. It was like a small one bedroom apartment with a small entry foyer, small hallway, large separate bathroom, separate bedroom and combined kitchen dining living room. It seemed much bigger than the quoted 45sqm. It's at the rear of the hotel and was dead quiet for the whole stay. No traffic or hotel noise. None. The full blockout curtains also worked perfectly. We rested very well.
My only small criticism about the layout was the use of a sliding barn type door on the bathroom with no seals, so that it wasn't as private as we prefer. There was excellent water pressure and USB power outlets next to the bed. No international powerpoints.
We paid for the breakfast buffet on one morning and hated the bright orange runny mess that was supposed to be scrambled eggs, the undercooked, anaemic bacon and soggy sausages. Luckily, there were enough other choices, but we didn't go back a second time. We also didn't like the fact that you need to plan ahead for breakfast because it effectively finishes at 9:30 a.m. and you need to pre-buy a coupon at reception. You can't just charge it to your room after you finish. (We liked it so much we actually extended our stay for two extra nights at full price.)
Despite the minor niggles, we loved staying in this room and would easily stay here again.
