slanted floor ceiling cracks
Room 33 proved quite a climb. i counted over 50 stairs. This place is clearly unsuitable for anyone with mobility issues. furthermore the room itself had a noticeable slant. walking straight was a challenge and i spotted cracks all over the ceiling.

delicious breakfast very good coffee nearby parking half-marathon
the location was good and the breakfast was delicious. coffee was very good too!
the hotel didn't tell me that my first day was on the day of the half-marathon. this meant a large part of the city including the hotel and all of the nearby parking was cordoned off. i spent a long time driving around and eventually found the nearest place to park almost 2 miles away. it was a nightmare!
