The location felt central. It was so easy to wander to nearby attractions. breakfast offered a good start each morning with a good spread. sanitary conditions impressed me greatly. The high standard of cleanliness was evident everywhere.

The shower's water temperature was consistently cold, quite unpleasant. i reported this issue twice. the bathroom lacked sufficient shelving. There was nowhere to put toiletries. the shower hose also had to be held due to a faulty bracket.
