Adequate, but with issues

excessive noise extra cost

The room was a Double Room, and it provided enough space.

The noise level was excessive at night. I couldn't open the window due to street noise. Breakfast disappointed. The cappuccino cost an extra €3.70. Social dancing continued late into the night.
