The room had a balcony. It offered a lovely space to enjoy some fresh air. The indoor swimming pool was clean. I also liked the convenience of having parking available.
My room lacked air conditioning. This made it uncomfortably warm at times. The bar was unexpectedly closed one Saturday evening. I noticed some paint touch-ups were not well done.
