slightly subpar stay

street noiseold towels
the noise level from the street below was something else. it made SLEEP a challenge. also, the towels was like they had seen better days... old, thin, not exactly luxurious. breakfast being a help-yourself affair in the corridor felt a bit makeshift, i must say.

Breakfast is help yourself from a bar. It is well stocked in the corridor outside the rooms. Guests must eat in their rooms, as there is no access to the restaurant.

The staff was very clean and friendly. They were also helpful. The staff rang me when my pet dog was barking, I found that very considerate of them.

The hotel has a roof terrace for warmer months. The terrace is not a good option for winter. The room was a good size for two people though it was advertised as a room for three.
