the breakfast was fine, i suppose.
i found the bathroom to be not as clean as i expected (some mold was visible). i also thought the room could have been a bit better maintained. it wasn't a disaster, but i definitely noticed these things.

the location suited my needs. the hotel was easy to access.
i had booked a double or twin room second floor? the room felt small and the bed was quite hard. i found it difficult to get comfortable, resulting in a restless night. also, the noise from the nearby road was more noticeable than i anticipated. it disrupted my sleep.
