Charming stay, was excellent!

quirky decorspacious roomvaried breakfast
The hotel's decor struck me as wonderfully quirky. I appreciated the spacious room I had, complete with excellent amenities. Plus, the breakfast options had such variety. I was able to find parking on the street nearby through an app and felt secure leaving my car there. It made logistics easy. I would book this hotel again!
The kettle didn't fit under the tap in the room. I found it a bit inconvenient.

average stay due to noise issues

convenient bus stoppoor soundproofingloud door slamming
breakfast included as part of the package made things easier. we used the bus since it stops right outside the hotel.
The noise in the mornings was awful. Room doors slamming constantly from 7 a.m. onwards made it hard to sleep in. the doors have no soundproofing.

The breakfast had a broad selection, I guess that's acceptable.
The noise in the mornings was awful. I mean awful. Room doors slamming constantly from 7 a.m., seriously? The soundproofing seems nonexistent. I heard my neighbor in the shower. It felt more like a hostel. Not cool.
