shower curtain ground floor location
The receptionist organized non feather bedding immediately because I needed it due to allergies.
The bathroom lacked a separate shower, so the floor flooded since there was only a shower curtain over the bath. My room was in a strange ground floor location, and I had to carry my cases up some stairs to reach it. It overlooked the car park, which wasn't ideal (I'm sure there were nicer views available). I didn't find the room good value for the price.

good location nice room hotel parking hidden reception welcome absence empty hall
The location is very good. The room was very nice. There is limited parking at the hotel, but a parking lot is right next door.
On entry to the hotel the reception is tucked to the left. There was no sense of a welcome. The reception area has an empty entrance hall.
