varied selectionfriendly staffbad bathroomstuffy air
The breakfast had a varied selection, but its range could have been better. no orange juice was available. It was only mixed with apples. otherwise, the staff was friendly.
I got a room where i could not open the window, and the air became quite stuffy overnight. the bathroom smelled bad, though. I found it unpleasant.

totally loved this place

comfy roomseasy layoutssuper staffquick needs
rooms are comfy, layouts easy, and breakfast rocks. the staff are super nice, especially the receptionist. restaurants are nearby and a mini-market is perfect for quick needs.
the bar only had like one type of cider, and one beer on tap, a bit boring honestly.
