The location is excellent for exploring. I found the breakfast choice very good. The staff members were friendly and happy to help.
My room was very small. There was no soap, only shampoo in dispensers on day 1. I had to find my room on my own. It was in the second block, up and down, cumbersome.

ample breakfastfresh juicebroken thermostatexcessively warm
The breakfast selection was ample, with many options (i liked the fresh juice).
The thermostat in the room was broken, so it was excessively warm, reaching +24-26 degrees. This forced us to keep the window open all the time. Some neighbors were smoking from their windows, it was a bit annoying (i would expect better for the price).
