convenient stop on a long drive

diverse selectioncomfy bedopen barwater temperature

the breakfast selection was diverse and satisfying. i found the room spacious with a comfortable bed, very quiet. the hotel's proximity to the highway. the bar stayed open late, a plus after a day of driving..

the shower's water temperature fluctuated, going from hot to cold unpredictably. this made it hard to take a comfortable shower. additionally, the water had an unpleasant odor initially, requiring it to run for several minutes to dissipate.

the hotel provides a gym equipped with treadmills and stationary bikes, ensuring guests have options for exercise. sauna access is available, great for relaxation after a workout or a long day of travel.

limited charging portstuck drain

I had some issues . the car charging situation was not good. There was only one charging port for the entire hotel. also, there was no designated parking for electric cars, and the drain in the bathroom got stuck. no one helped me with this issue. They just suggested i move to another room. that wasn't ideal after i had unpacked everything.

The staff was helpful. I arrived earlier than the scheduled check-in time, and they quickly arranged for my room. The hotel has gated parking. The breakfast offered a good selection of food items.

The shower had fluctuating temperatures. It alternated between hot and cold, difficult to shower. The water initially had an unpleasant odor, which dissipated after running for about five minutes.
