The staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good.
The bathroom was a PROBLEM. The shower pressure was RIDICULOUS, it was nearly impossible to rinse shampoo. I also noticed mold around the window and bath. I also saw only one toilet paper roll. A reserve roll was nowhere to be found, really ANNOYING.

the staff were very friendly and helpful. i enjoyed the good choice of breakfast available. the location was great, offering good access to nearby areas.
The parking situation was not ideal. There were only four spaces at the back. these spaces were also not clearly marked, which caused some confusion. I found the bedrooms to be quite tired and in need of some updating.
