Mixed Feelings Stay

breakfast optionssmall roommissing towels

The breakfast had enough options for a quick meal.

The room they gave me was too small. It felt cramped with all my luggage and the sofa bed took up all the space. I also asked for extra towels, but I never receive them. The lack of space and the missing towels.

The location and the staff were top notch. It was easy to get to the city and the team proved more than helpful.

The room had USED leftover paper towels. there was a strange moldy substance on the ceiling in the shower. The thermostat did not work properly, thus the room remained warm all night and started to smell funny. The shower was also disappointing.
