sweet memories in a perfect setting

friendly staffcomplimentary coffeeexcellent kitchennoisy traffic

the staff was friendly and helpful . we appreciated the complimentary coffee machine available 24 hours, and we enjoyed relaxing in the cozy living room. the room was super clean, equipped with dishes, a refrigerator, a stovetop, and an electric teapot (it seemed like home).

i found the street traffic to be quite noisy at times (earplugs might be useful). the shower floor was also a bit slippery, so caution is advised. the toilet didn't seem to be securely fixed to the wall, a minor concern.

Location

The location is very convenient. Shops and restaurants are within a comfortable walking distance. the hotel is perfectly situated for accessing both the train line and the town center with ease. also the marina is quite near.

a coffee machine offers complimentary drinks in the living room throughout the day. the hotel also provides parking in the basement, a useful feature. i found the small pool very refreshing (though a little chilly in the morning).
