Satisfactory Stay

fresh pastries public transport small gym outdated television
The breakfast had a wide variety of options. I especially enjoyed the fresh pastries. The location is also convenient for using public transport. It was easy to get around THE city from here.
The gym was quite small. It also lacked a sauna. The television in the room seemed outdated. It was difficult to connect any external devices to it.

the breakfast was acceptable but nothing special.
The fitness room, it was more like a storage closet, very small. i also found the staff to be not as helpful, they seemed distracted. I was waiting for assistance on a problem with my bill, i was standing there for an unreasonable long time.

hot chocolate reception area
The location is convenient with a large bus stop nearby that provides access to many destinations.
I WAS disappointed that the room lacked hot drink making facilities , with costly and subpar hot chocolate available only in the reception area. THIS definitely needs improvement. The coffee was not great either.
