Excellent Central Stay
clean room central location convenient breakfast
The room was clean and well kept. The location is central, very close to the city center, so I had easy access to attractions. I found the breakfast brought to my room each morning particularly convenient, especially since I had some early starts (the croissants were great!).
The locking system for the rooms was a bit temperamental. I experienced a slight delay getting into my room one evening. I was able to call and get assistance.
