the hotel is in a quiet area and breakfast had plenty of choice, ok.

the reception wasn't busy when i arrived, but the receptionist wasn't friendly and didn't give a welcome that felt warm. i got a room that just faced other rooms, even though there was many rooms empty. i couldn't even see the sky, and , made me a little sad.
