the receptionist was very friendly and cute.
the bed proved quite uncomfortable . the shower design, with only an overhead nozzle, lacked practicality. furthermore, the pillows seemed due for replacement (i hope they address this ).

the location was convenient near public transport. The room was clean and tidy. i appreciated the availability of tea and coffee in the room.
the room i stayed in was smaller than expected. the bathroom door could not fully open because of its size. it took some time for the hot water to come through in the bathroom. THE parking situation was not ideal.

the location was acceptable, providing easy access to nearby amenities.
The room i booked was not up to standard. It lacked soundproofing, and street noise was intrusive late into the night. furthermore, the bathroom was cramped, and the shower had inconsistent water temperature.

The room featured a double bed. It also had a coffee and tea maker. The shower worked wonderfully, which I appreciated. Breakfast was cooked to order and of good quality.
The pillows had an odd smell. I couldn't quite identify it, but it was slightly off-putting.
