The music from the bar below was loud, even though i was told about potential noise. a door somewhere below kept banging throughout the night. It shook my room until midnight.

the room was lovely and clean, it was good value, especially considering weddings nearby.
The outer door remained locked at 08:50, it was hard to get out with luggage so i used the fire door. A silver-haired lady shouted, telling me to use it grumpily. i ordered an americana for breakfast, but i received weak, tasteless instant coffee served in a teapot. how annoying, considering a top-of-the-range italian coffee machine was behind me.
