Acceptable but Flawed Stay

decent selectionparking spaces
The breakfast was satisfactory and offered a decent selection of items to start the day.
Parking proved to be a significant issue. The spaces were tight and I was asked to reposition the car multiple times (quite irritating). This added unnecessary stress to the stay. The room itself felt cramped, especially the bathroom.
