The location worked well, as it is between the city center and the airport. A bus station nearby offered easy transportation. The room was cozy and included milk and cereal for breakfast.
The shower did not have hot water . I ran the shower for ten minutes without any heat. Although there was hot water in the sink, the shower remained cold.

Our room featured a comfortable king size bed. i found the inclusion of a mini fridge quite convenient. the bus service into the city was excellent. It made exploring very simple (i didn't rent a car). i had a great meal at the chinese manor house, just a short walk away.
the ensuite was quite small, it served its purpose.

the location proved convenient, especially with its proximity to the airport bus stop. i found a lidl supermarket conveniently located nearby. the host kindly allowed me to drop my bags early, which i appreciated after my early flight.
i noted a distinct mothball smell, predominantly in the corridor. the room felt quite small, impacting overall comfort. noise from the main road was noticeable, even inside the room.
