great locationfriendly staff membersfree coffeebasic breakfastsmall roommissing kettle
The location was great, close to the city centre. The staff members were very kind. The room had almost everything I needed and they offered free coffee during the day. The room was cleaned daily. I appreciated that.
The breakfast was super basic. I was hoping for the room to be provided with kettle, coffee and tea. The room you gave me was very small. I changed and topped the differential amount.
