the staff was friendly and helpful. my room was spacious and comfortable. breakfast offered a good choice and everything was delicious.
the wallpaper was barely attached to the walls in some places. it seemed the paint was mostly holding it up. the mirrors in the room were too low for comfortable use.

i found a couple things irritating. first, the noise was pretty bad. the walls seemed like paper, and i heard everything from other rooms and the hallway. also, the bathroom need a serious update. the shower curtain clings and the grout had seen better days, really took away from any relaxation.

The room was very clean and pleasant. The breakfast included was plentiful. The location was excellent too, close to many things.
The radiator in my room was tiny and barely warm. The towel radiator was not even working. The shower was a dribble also.
