the staff were friendly, i guess.
I booked a twin room, but it was so small! honestly, it reminded me of they'd just shoved two single beds into a broom closet. also, the soundproofing was non-existent. I could hear every cough and sneeze from the room next door. it wasn't great

Solid Stay Near the Centre
helpful staffparking availabilitysmall window
The staff were consistently helpful and friendly . Breakfast offered a good variety of choices, including fresh fruit and pastries. I found the hotel's location to be convenient for exploring nearby attractions. Free parking was available behind the hotel. This made things easier!
My room lacked a shelf in the shower to place soap or shampoo. The small window also. This was a minor inconvenience but I wish there was air conditioning.
Dining
8/10
The breakfast selection included croissants, jam, and yogurt. I found the coffee to be unexpectedly good. There was a decent variety, though some hot options would have been nice. The dining area was clean and well-kept.
Facilities

Free parking is available . I found the rooms to be modern with classic touches. High ceilings gave the room a spacious feel. The hotel also provided tea and coffee making facilities.
Location

The hotel is located a short walk from the town center, though there is a hill to climb to return. It was easy to walk down one street to get to the center. There is a bus stop directly in front of the building.
Service

The staff were helpful. They allowed me to keep my luggage at the hotel after check-out. The team showed a high level of care and service. I had wonderful communication with all staff members.

The room was smaller than expected. I found the breakfast selection limited. A MORE extensive offering would have enhanced the experience. I noticed a stain on the carpet NEAR the bed and it detracted from the otherwise clean environment.
