Pleasant Stay with Helpful Staff

spacious suitehigh ceilingsfour-poster bedminimal parking
I stayed in a bridal suite and it was very spacious. I also noted its high ceilings and attractive four-poster bed. The staff were helpful carrying my heavy suitcase up two flights of stairs I found this very kind. The location proved convenient for local amenities.
There was a minimal amount of off-street parking available. I incurred significant costs because of parking in the nearby street.

surprisingly nice stay

great locationfriendly staffslamming doors
the location worked out great. the staff allowed me to store my bike over the weekend (super convenient!). also, i could keep my breakfast in their fridge, and they were quite friendly doing it. it helped a lot with my plans.
There was some noise at night. I could hear doors slamming (it was a bit disruptive). a new soundproofing would be a great plus for light sleepers.

mixed feelings about this stay

car park viewstingy quilt
the hotel showed its age. my room's window looked directly onto a rather uninspiring car park. the lack of net curtains made privacy a bit of a joke, considering the view. plus, the double bed came with a single quilt.. a rather stingy touch.
