i found the staff helpful. they provided assistance whenever needed. our apartment included daily maid service, fresh sheets, and towels every three days. it was a very nice touch.

the air conditioning was pricey at €12 a night. on the last night, it stopped working altogether, a little disappointing. the hotel did offer a refund upon checkout though.

the staff were nice, and the supermarket right next door was very convenient for picking up essentials.

My room was quite small. I found the lack of a shower curtain to be a real problem. the water splashed everywhere and made the bathroom floor constantly wet. This created a slipping hazard.
