convenient location excellent breakfast attentive staff tasty food

The room was a bit too warm. There was no air conditioning, and i couldn't fully open the windows because they were just small tilt windows

excellent location helpful staff
The location was excellent. The included toiletries in refillable dispensers was a good touch (reducing waste is always a plus). The staff were helpful. The breakfast was great and had a very high standard.
The room lacked air conditioning, and the operable windows were small.

cute staff spacious room rubber duck races
I found the staff very cute. They even warmed my honey for me (how thoughtful!). The room was spacious, clean and inviting. I loved watching the ducks while having breakfast. I also enjoyed the school fair rubber duck races. It was a real treat.
I noticed a need for better luggage handling. Carrying my suitcase up the narrow staircases was difficult. There was no elevator, challenging.
