charming accommodation with parking

convenient locationdecent gymnearby activityunfriendly receptionist
The location suited me perfectly it was close to shops and transport. tour activities were nearby too. i liked that there were entries from both streets. the gym was a very decent size. It had showers a sauna, and a hot tub.
The customer service at check-in was not great. the receptionist, seemran, was unfriendly and not very helpful. i also had trouble with the wi-fi. It was very slow and often disconnected. i think having clear price information for drinks and snacks would be better.
