excellent locationfresh fruitclean roomoutdated roomhot waterrunning toilet
the location was excellent, a quick walk put me right in the heart of things. breakfast was good (i liked the fresh fruit). my room was very comfy and tidy.
my room seemed a bit outdated, especially considering the type i booked. i had to wait a few minutes for hot water to come out of the shower tap. i also noticed that when i flushed the toilet, the water sometimes didn't stop running until i pressed the button again.
