The location was very central and beautiful. the staff were amazing and very helpful. They went the extra mile . the room was nice and cosy.
The shower was tiny. It was almost impossible to take a shower without the curtain sticking. utensils and cups were not thoroughly cleaned. finding clean ones was a chore. the photos online did not match this.

The staff was very friendly and helpful.
The doors were loud, which disrupted my rest (especially early in the morning). The hotel used normal keys. I would have preferred a keycard system.
