good varietypoor signpostingnon-functional remote

The breakfast offered a good variety of options.

Finding the entrance late at night proved difficult, signposting was poor. The room had issues, the clock was stuck and the TV remote didn't function (which was annoying). Despite this, the receptionist during checkout provided great help with directions.

the staff seemed helpful and polite. good quality bedding was provided. the room WAS quiet and well equipped, which i appreciated. towels felt soft and new.

the bathroom door did not close properly. i felt a little claustrophobic because of this. the room felt a little stuffy at times. i think there was no sound proofing, as i could hear everything from neighboring rooms.
