The two-story room featured amazing picture windows, it looked over snow-covered trees. downstairs included a large lounge area with a refrigerator and fully stocked minibar. Seats and a day bed were also available. there was plenty of hanging space for big winter coats near the entrance.
breakfast had low quality, it seemed designed for mass production.
