convenient locationtiny bathroomfew hooks
the location was fine near town centre. tea and coffee were available. i guess that's decent.
i found the room tiny. there wasn't a wardrobe. a few hooks tried to compensate but failed. the bathroom was even tinier, a true challenge to navigate, with a micro shower cabin with a wc.
