adequate stay, but some issues

buffet stylecold roomhard bed

the breakfast was buffet style, and the choice was okay.

the room was far too cold, and the radiator barely worked. i had to keep getting up every few hours during the night to try and boost the heat but there wasn't anyone available at reception to even speak with about this. the bed was also hard and uncomfortable to sleep on.

The staff were very pleasant.

The room was very small. The shower pressure was so bad, it barely trickled water. The floors creaked a lot, especially in the bathroom area.
