My room included USB ports near the bed and plenty of plug sockets! I found three rolls of toilet paper available. The hand soap and shampoo had such a nice smell, a really lovely touch. I received more milk for tea and coffee than usually provided.
The check in time was moved to 4 PM. I thought this was a little late.

the food in the bar was lovely. it had a menu that should suit everyone. breakfast was served in the restaurant and it had a gorgeous view of the water. plenty options were available.
the parking at the back of the hotel was very limited. it was tricky to get out in the morning because someone had parked in front of me. the barrier opens regardless of available space. i found a woman with glasses at reception rude.

The shower had almost no pressure. It was basically a trickle, so washing my hair took forever. the minibar was completely empty. I expected at least a few drinks. I had to go all the way down to the bar for a bottle of water. The whole situation was inconvenient and irritating. Especially after a long day.

The location was central I walked around the area easily.
The parking was a nightmare I found it confusing because of the narrow one-way streets. My room felt small possibly a converted storage area. I would not want to stay longer than one night because of it.
