satisfactory stay overall
clean room excellent location hot water compensation sort
the room was spacious, and i found it to be very clean. the location was excellent, as it was easy to walk to various points of interest in the city. the staff were pleasant.
the gas supply was lost . this meant there was no hot water. i mentioned this at checkout and only received an apology, but some sort of compensation would have been better

Wonderful City Stay

The location was central and convenient for exploring. On-site parking was a real benefit, as it simplified our travel logistics (a huge plus!).
The temperature control in the room seemed a little inconsistent, needing some adjustment to maintain a stable, comfortable environment.
