Good location and helpful staff

great location walking distance top floor
I was happy about the location. Many restaurants are a walking distance. Sophie from the reception was helpful with my needs. The pool on the top floor was quiet. It was nice to have it for the hottest hours of the day.
I had a small issue. The toilet always had a pee smell. It needs a good bleaching. The shower had a slow drain. It would fill with water.
