adequate stay
helpful staffdecent breakfastconvenient locationstreet noisesoft beddrainage smell
the staff were indeed friendly and helpful. the breakfast offered a decent selection (i liked the pastries). the location was convenient enough, close to the city center.
my room faced the street, and it was quite noisy. the bed was a bit too soft for my liking. i found a strange smell in the courtyard outside my room sometimes, perhaps drainage related.
