a central place with minor drawbacks

central locationconvenient accessnice courtyardmissing refrigeratornarrow parkingdifficult entrance

the hotel is centrally located near sites. accessing rooms requires a pin which i found convenient. there is a nice courtyard perfect for enjoying coffee or tea. lockers are also available in the lobby for storing luggage.

my room lacked a refrigerator and a kettle. it would have been nice to have those amenities. the parking area is very narrow so it is difficult for larger vehicles. the hotel entrance was also hard to find upon arrival.
