Comfortable Stay with Good Amenities

comfortable bedfluffy towelsadditional cost
The hotel provided a warm welcome. The bed was comfortable and the towels were fluffy. I appreciated the dining credit for opting out of daily room cleaning. The location allowed an easy walk into town and quick access to the Greenway.
The spa visit required purchasing swim caps. This was unexpected. I had to spend an extra 13 euros.
