solid stay!

free parking lotgenerous breakfastpoor pillow
The check-in process was quick and efficient. a large, free parking lot is available ! the location allows easy and fast access to the city centre. the breakfast was generous and varied. Items were replenished quickly.
the pillows were poor and uncomfortable! i was advised that there were to be 2 hard and 2 soft, but i found that none had held their shape, leading to neck pain and a less than restful sleep.

solid stay with good breakfast

comfortable bedonsite parkinguncomfortable pillow
the staff was courteous and professional. the breakfast included well-cooked items and a variety of options. the beds were comfortable, and the shower offered nice creme soap. there was also sufficient onsite parking available, though payment was required.
i found the pillows quite lumpy and uncomfortable. there was also a small gap around the window, about 2cm, preventing it from closing tightly. wind howled through this gap because of the storm, causing the curtains to move a bit.
