the location proved convenient. i appreciated its proximity to a lovely square. complimentary drinks, including coffee and tea, were a plus. the self-serve water carafe was a nice touch too.
the breakfast was somewhat disappointing. i noticed some bananas was black. the bread seemed stale. the room was quite small and had a strange smell, possibly from old food.
