fresh breakfast convenient parking small room cramped bathroom

The breakfast was delicious and fresh. they prepared pancakes to order. there was bread, nuts, and cheese available. the hotel has its own parking spaces. It was very convenient.

the room was quite small. the bathroom also felt cramped. i found the value for money to be a little disappointing.

The room was very clean. Housekeeping services were provided daily. i appreciated the fresh towels. They were restocked each day. the bed was comfortable. It helped me sleep well after a long day, though the sink was in the room. This was unexpected.
