a great overnight choice

comfy bedsfriendly staffnoisy fan
room 3, a twin room, was spacious, well-equipped, and very clean. the beds were super comfy, (i slept like a log). the staff proved friendly and helpful.
The window of my room faced the courtyard. Some people talking there at 11:15 pm woke me. this area maybe should close earlier to avoid disturbance. the fan triggered by the bathroom light was quite noisy.
