just okay, i suppose

small room sulfur smell

The room felt smaller than expected. there wasn't much space to move around, and storing luggage was a struggle. the shared bathroom needed more frequent cleaning. I saw hair and grime. also, the sulfur smell from the water was really strong, i found it off putting.

I was happy to discover a lounge area next to the kitchen. it featured a fridge and freezer. i arrived early and could relax before my room was ready at 2pm. the location allowed easy walks to the town center and waterfront. This was really convenient.

My room was somewhat small. It felt a little stuffy.

the check in was very easy, even without staff present. i liked having lockers available both before and after my stay for luggage storage. the central location made walking to most attractions simple.

the room was a bit small, and it felt a little stuffy, particularly without an elevator to get to the upper floors.
