Cozy and Quiet Getaway
tidy roomcomfortable bedample parkingmissing soap
My room was clean and tidy (that's what matters most to me). The bed proved comfortable, and I slept well . Breakfast was delicious, I must say. The hotel also offered ample parking spaces.
I noticed that no soap was provided in the bathroom, a bit inconvenient. It would have been a nice touch to have some available.
