friendly host good location private parking missing elevator

breakfast was really good, i did appreciate the friendly host. i managed to park my car on the drive, a nice bonus. location was good, and walking to the sea front was easy, i was able to come and go as i pleased.

i was disappointed i chose the hotel because it had private parking, but i was told it was full when i got there. it should have said on the website that parking may not be available. there wasnt any elevators so i have to walk.
