No outdoor space except a small cafe on the pedestrian paved area . We had to hang around for a few hours before check-in and as we had all our money, and valuables with us couldnt wander out . Concierge was surley and insisted he does not respond to earlier emails if we had sent them through Expedia. Once we did get our room it was super and we as we had a great dinner and breakfast with free bottle of wine via our Expedia booking it was good value for money.
