varied optionsoutdated roomdifficult sleeping
The breakfast was varied, it had many options. The location near the canal was good for walks.
The room seemed outdated, I noticed wear and tear. The air conditioning had only two settings, too cold or off, this made sleeping difficult. I found it hard to get comfortable without constantly adjusting it.

Wonderful Hotel Experience!

great choicefresh fruitinadequate coffee
The breakfast offered a great choice of food. I liked the fruit selection. It was very fresh! The hotel's location is also convenient for walking into the city center. This made exploring easy. I appreciated the supermarket across the canal. This was very handy for necessities.
The coffee provided in the room was quite inadequate. I found it difficult to get extra coffee or milk. The provided facilities did not meet expectations for the price I paid.
