The breakfast was cooked fresh and had a little bit of everything.

The room was quite small. There was barely space to walk around the bed. I found the street very noisy at night.

The breakfast included fresh products of high quality. Staff members were warm and skilled. I enjoyed the high quality shower and bath products provided.

The room was quite small. The street outside was very noisy late into the night and again early in the morning. I found it hard to sleep well because of this noise.
