The on-site parking met expectations , making arrival convenient.
The absence of a lift proved inconvenient. Carrying luggage to upper floors became quite strenuous. I also noted considerable noise from adjacent rooms.

i appreciated the short walk to the city center. free parking was available, very convenient. the hosts were very friendly and accommodating. the room was very clean and well-presented.

we had a self-catering apartment. the whole thing looked brand new! on-site parking is a massive plus.
The covering was not a duvet, but i think americans call them comforters. It was thin and also not wide enough for the bed.
