great location and super clean room

water pressure short walk

i appreciated the excellent water pressure in the shower it was very refreshing. the location was also a real plus being only a short walk from the town centre and lakeside area.

Parking on a narrow street was tricky. there was a noisy neighbor in the next room. I found it disruptive.

small bathroom shower temperature

I found the bathroom rather small. The shower temperature was difficult to regulate. It shifted from hot to cold unexpectedly. These fluctuations were quite annoying during what should have been a relaxing shower.
