Solid Hotel Experience

clean roomseasy walksparking issue
The hotel has spacious, clean rooms. Breakfast included many tasty options and a very delicious range. The location allows for easy walks to shops and restaurants. The castle is also nearby, and a sightseeing train is available.
Parking was an issue for me as I failed to secure a spot on the hotel. I had to park several blocks away from this place. This created a bit of inconvenience .

i couldn't secure an on-site parking spot and had to park a few blocks away. the pillows were uncomfortable. this was a huge disappointment for a room that i paid quite a lot for just one night.

i gotta say, the 'superior king room' i got wasn't exactly superior. the tv remote didn't work, i mean, who wants to get up to change the channel? also, the promised city view turned out to be a charming view of the bins. that's not what i call a kingly experience, more like a jester's joke, i think. for what i payed, i expected slightly more luxury, you know, less garbage.
