mixed feelings about my stay

thin walls weak shower
the walls seemed thin. i could hear other guests easily. this made it difficult to relax (i really needed a quiet night). also, the shower pressure was quite weak. it was hard to get a good rinse after a long day.

great location and clean rooms!

perfect location clean room courtyard parking
the hotel has a perfect location only ten minutes from the center. rooms were clean and also quite large. i liked the courtyard parking because it's free and very practical.
the pillows were very firm and not what i prefered. the room was hot when i arrived and i had to open the window to cool it down. this was a small inconvenience.

convenient location modern bathroom free parking poor noise insulation creaky floors absent fridge
the location was convenient. i could easily walk to the town center (it was about a 10-minute walk). the bathroom seemed modern and spacious. i also appreciated the free on-site parking.
the noise insulation was not great. i could hear a lot of noise from other guests walking around. the floors seemed creaky. i also noticed there was no fridge in the room, only in the reception area.
