the central location was convenient. proximity to attractions made exploring easy. i found the bar and restaurant areas inviting. service quality created a nice social atmosphere. the room was spacious, and all amenities worked properly.

the car parking felt expensive. the website quoted a lower rate than charged. the pool looked smaller than the photos online suggested. the air cooling in the room did not seem to work. the window opening caused some traffic noise.

Acceptable stay with notable flaws

peeling wallpapercold bacon

The room showed its age. Wallpaper was peeling in places. The vent in the toilet was loose and a hazard. I found the bed much too firm, it contributed to a restless night. Breakfast was mediocre at best. The bacon tasted almost cold.
