wobbly towel rail small shower
The room was clean , spacious and warm.
The towel rail in the bathroom was wobbly and hanging down. The shower was small , giving me a claustrophobic feeling. There was a good supply of toiletries though.

Acceptable Stay with Issues

difficult stairs inadequate fridge
The room was nicely decorated throughout with a French furniture design and white furniture.
The stairs to the attic room were difficult to navigate with suitcases. This was quite inconvenient. Once inside, a through draft came from two opposite windows. The tiny milk fridge was inadequate.

fantastic stay!

gorgeous decor reasonable price modern bathroom super speed wi-fi
The decor was gorgeous and felt luxurious, even though the price was reasonable! the kitchenette had more than expected. Cutlery, utensils, plates, glasses, mugs, bowls, and a dishwasher were provided! i was even happy to see a hot plate and grill. the bathroom was modern with luxurious toiletries. The wi-fi reached super speeds with around 300mbps download and upload!
i noticed some rubbish in the car park area and by the front door. it's a shame such a nice place has that issue.

narrow stairs attic room
the breakfast across the road was acceptable , i suppose.
I didn't like hauling my suitcase up those narrow stairs to the attic room . Maneuvering it was tricky. once i was up there , the draft from the two opposite windows was good , i must say.

i found the room itself very tidy. it was a king studio. the free parking was very helpful, and i was grateful it was included. the room size was quite generous, i appreciate that.
i noticed the main gate wasnt closed properly several times. i think the automatic door closure is not reliable. i booked rooms for two periods. the room i booked for the second period wasnt cleaned on the first day.
