The staff was friendly. But the wi-fi was slow!

the breakfast area seemed disorganized, with only one coffee machine. this caused a long queue that blocked access to plates, cutlery, and the general flow of guests. it made getting breakfast difficult

the staff at the reception were very polite and helpful, i apreciated that. the menu had good choices and i was able to eat a late meal after my arrival. the room WAS super clean and cozy.

Some details in the room were a little unclean, like the cups in the bathroom. the kettle and hairdryer could have done with a more in depth wipe over, it is true. the cost of the taxi to the airport was high. It was over €17 for a few minutes trip.
