parking slotsbathroom spacesound proofingfloor heaters
The room was well equipped. Staff offered plastic cutlery and plates at reception. This was a good feature. Parking slots were available. This was useful. The bathroom and bedroom had much space.
The soundproofing wasnt good. I do not know if it's because of the heaters in the floor so perhaps not enough sound proofing. I could hear everything that was happening above us. Every single step they took came pounding through.

The location was CENTRAL!!! Walking to town was straightforward. The WiFi worked GREAT. The beds offered cleanliness and comfort.

Adequate stay near the city center

city centereasy accessparking accesssound proofingdouble roomupstairs noise
the guest house is near the city center. It takes less than 15 minutes to walk there. The house has a backyard and parking with easy access. This is from a one way street cornering from the main A 82 road.
The soundproofing IS BAD. I was in the superior double room. I could hear everything that was happening above me.
