solid stay

the breakfast offered many choices and was of good quality, i thought. the location was very good, and the parking facility was a definite bonus. i found the staff cute on arrival.
my room got ridiculously hot, even with the heating off. the windows had to be opened above the radiators, which seemed counterproductive. the floors also creaked a lot.
