friendly staff helpful staff decent room size sealed windows misleading parking

The staff was very friendly and helpful, answering all my questions quickly. The room was immaculate and a decent size (perfect for one person). The breakfast had plenty of variety, including a good selection for breakfast.

I didn't like that the windows were sealed. I couldn't open them for fresh air. The description of parking was misleading and they do not have on-site parking (i had to find a spot nearby).

The room offered a modern design. I appreciated the USB ports available for charging devices. The hotel's central location provided convenient access to local attractions. Parking was available, albeit more expensive than initially indicated.

The lift was positioned close to the room, I noticed the noise and light could be bothersome.
