this location suited my travel plans perfectly. the breakfast included a wonderful selection and set me up each day. the free tea and coffee available all day was a great perk as well. i could always recharge before heading back out for more adventures.
the hairdryer in my room seemed quite old, and i struggled to get it working efficiently. i'd suggest bringing your own if you rely on one.
