ample spacebunk bedcute beddingsmall rail

The family room offered ample space and included a double bed and a bunk bed. The bedding presented a cute design with white and pink tones. A small hanging rail was a nice addition. I found plenty of towels provided in the room.

The radiator remained on in the room, so attempts to adjust or turn it off proved unsuccessful.

The hotel features a well-kept environment and a downstairs arcade room designed for children. This arcade area provides a recreational option for younger guests directly within the accommodation. The hotel looked very clean.
