good wifiboiling hot watersmall sink
the location was acceptable. the room offered good wifi.
the shower system provided boiling hot water or ice-cold water. one could only shower properly for about 10 seconds per minute. the toilet was installed so one could not sit straight because a small sink was in the way. the lid fell down every time one sat down.

the location was perfect in quiet surrounds, and i found the easy parking very helpful. my room was also warm and comfortable. i appreciated the spacious en-suite bedroom and slept soundly.
