it was hard to find the right door on the street and then enter the code on the door as it was difficult to understand. the bed frame was very creaky and there was not even a lamp in the room. the bed was comfortable and the pillows were also soft. room had a good amount of plug sockets and a nice window on the roof. overall not too bad but improvements could be made

The property itself was well kept, clean, and had good utilities. Parking was not at all clear, since it seemed to be in a permit-only area so I parked about 10 minutes away on foot. Strange area to stay in, but again, the place itself was nice and well kept.
