great locationfriendly staffclean roombroken lockmissing refrigeratortwin duvets

the triple room had what I expected for its price. the location was greatonly minutes on foot from many historical sites. the staff was friendly and showed me how to get to the stadium for the football match.

i found no refrigerator in the room when i checked in. the lock on the door did not work i was told it was like this in all rooms. instead of one double duvet, there were two twin duvets on the double bed.
