The staff were friendly. The location was spot on.
I want a choice of rooms set up for accessibility. The bathroom became a war zone after a shower and water went everywhere. The sink was at my knee level.

the location was convenient for accessing nearby tram stops. i found several dining options nearby within easy walking distance. the breakfast offered a good selection (i especially liked the fresh pastries).
the air conditioning in my room wasn't working properly. this made the room uncomfortably warm, particularly at night. i thought the staff could have been more informative regarding the parking situation.
