The breakfast had good variety, satisfying most needs. Fresh pastries and bacon was available.
The room was too hot. I asked how to turn down the heat, but the front desk said they control all rooms and didn't know how to change it. Staff weren't very friendly. I was also accused of not paying the tax. I paid cash.

The breakfast included a good selection. The staff were friendly and ready to help, I guess.
The room I stayed in had a major soundproofing problem, to be honest. I could hear every word from the hallway. Sleeping was tough with doors banging and people talking, a bit of a nightmare.
