I had a nice stay at Cram Hotel, but there were a few aspects that let it down. The reception staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, and my room was spacious with a comfortable bed. However, I was disappointed that the rooftop terrace was closed for renovations, which I wasn't aware of before booking, and breakfast was not up to the standard I expected for a four-star hotel, particularly with cold food served on multiple occasions.

My stay at Cram Hotel was quite enjoyable, thanks largely to its fantastic location and the quality of the breakfast served on the rooftop terrace. I appreciated the rooftop bar's stunning views, but the small size of the pool was a bit underwhelming. While I had some minor issues with the air conditioning and soundproofing, the overall experience was pleasant.
