the room was clean and spacious. i found the breakfast room lovely as it overlooked the river.
i was told our room was upgraded, but it had two single beds pushed together. also, no dressing robes were provided in the room, which surprised me.

The room was clean and modern. it was a superior twin room, which gave us ample space to move around. i appreciated the nespresso machine. The coffee was very good.
The free parking was limited, a major inconvenience. when i arrived, the car park was full. The receptionist directed me to a multi-story car park across the street, and i had to pay for it.
