the staff provided an iron and ironing board and also a hairdryer. i received a complimentary chocolate bar upon entering the room, a nice touch.
The breakfast lacked variety and did not cater to specific dietary needs. It felt limiting.

The location is convenient for the Utilita Arena and city center. The staff changed our room without question when the sofabed wasn't made up. The room was comfortable, clean, and a good size for my three night stay. The parking was easy and close to local restaurants.
The directions from the car park to reception via the stairs were not clear. It was difficult finding my way (especially with luggage).
