convenient locationcute stafftasty breakfastdated roomstained carpetchipped furniture
The location is really convenient, right in the town center. The staff at the front desk were very cute. Breakfast service in the bar offered a good menu with tasty options.
My room felt somewhat dated compared to other areas of the hotel. The carpet had noticeable stains. The paintwork and furniture showed scratches and chips.
