i found the staff at the front desk to be cute! they gave excellent recommendations for local spots. also, the breakfast had a perfect mix of hot dishes, fresh fruits, and yummy sweets. the coffee was amazing!!!

i was a bit disappointed that there wasn't parking available directly at the hotel. finding overnight parking nearby proved to be a little inconvenient. also, i noticed the light switches were somewhat confusing to operate.

i appreciated the hotel's convenient location for walking to nearby attractions. street parking was generally available, although it could be challenging later in the evening. the staff was helpful and friendly i found the rooms to be spacious with windows providing good ventilation. breakfast offered a wide selection of pastries and breads exceeding my expectations.

the light switches were not clearly labeled making them difficult to use. i had trouble turning off the lights completely and needed assistance from the reception desk.

lukewarm itemscramped gym

The breakfast buffet seemed great initially, but the hot items were consistently lukewarm. this was disappointing as i was looking forward to a warm breakfast each morning. also, the gym was smaller than i anticipated. It only had a few pieces of equipment and it felt quite cramped. I sometimes had to wait to use a treadmill. i think they should definitely invest in more equipment to accommodate more guests.
