Pleasant but hard to get fresh air in at night because if you opened the window but closed the shade, the air didn’t come in and the outside lights weee bright
Victoria, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was very comfortable. The room we were given was on the ground floor - coincidentally a handicapped room so it was amply spacious with a huge bathroom. The breakfast was very good. Parking was the only inconvenience. It was on the street and it was necessary to feed the meter every 2 hours. The town is interesting and good for walking, but most restaurants are closed from 3:00 to 5:00, it was hard to find a late lunch.

Staff was excellent to work with. They even arranged same day laundry service at a very modest rate.

Funktionalität eingeschränkt

Der Wasserdruck der Dusche im 3. Obergeschoss ist ungenügend und wenn jemand anderes Wasser braucht fliesst nichts mehr. Das Licht schaltet sich automatisch an und nach circa fünf Minuten wieder ab. Leider erfasst der Sensor die Dusche nicht, weshalb man eingeseift plötzlich im dunklen steht. Die Steuerung der Heizung funktionierte nicht und es war viel zu warm eingestellt.
