central stay surprise

central locationfrequent busesinteresting cocktailsgreat cafe

The location impressed me, central to everything i needed. i didn't need a car, as the buses run frequently. the bar around the corner served interesting cocktails. the cafe downstairs had a daily 'rowie' special i enjoyed. It was a great start to the day.

The bathroom chair needed some glue. It felt a little loose.

The location was quite central, really close to restaurants and shops (everything was within a few minutes walk!). The room featured up-to-date decor, which I found very appealing.

I noticed a slight delay in response when I tried to contact the staff via phone.

the location proved special, a gift. shops and restaurants sat nearby. i particularly enjoyed how clean the room felt, and the shower had good pressure.

the walls felt thin, too thin. i heard a loud argument from the next room. also, the bed felt a little hard, which wasn't tender.

Basic but Disappointing

no elevatorlate arrival

The lack of staff was noticeable. No one greeted me. I had to rely on emailed self-check-in instructions because I arrived late. There was no elevator so I carried my luggage up several flights of stairs. This made it hard. The experience felt impersonal and inconvenient.
