FANTASTIC stay AT this GEM

great servicefood optioncomfortable mattresssmall sink
The breakfast service included excellent food options i noticed. Customer service was great i must say! I slept in a spacious room it was so comfy. The mattress was comfortable i can guarantee this to everybody.
The bathroom had limited space which was not very practical. The sink area was small i felt. It was difficult to manage toiletries i really wanted to. It was not an amazing detail.
Location
9/10
The hotel enjoys a favorable location a short distance from the historic center. The central area is about ten minutes away on foot which is really not bad. The evenings were quiet ensuring restful sleep for me and my husband.

a bit underwhelmed, some issues noticed

good breakfastawkward bathroom layoutbroken shower faucet
the breakfast buffet had a decent selection of items, including omelets made to order.
the bathroom layout proved quite awkward. the toilet's door did not fully close, a strange design choice. also, the shower faucet knob detached during its first use and that was kind of annoying.
