The room was super clean, cleaned every day by attentive staff. I appreciated the hotel's central location. Several buses stop right outside, allowing easy exploration of the area. Breakfast offered good service and a tasty selection of items.
The understaffed bar resulted in a long wait. I waited an hour for a beer. This spoiled the leisurely New Year's day.
