No air conditioning, room was very warm and street noise loud so leaving the window open at night was problematic. We didn’t see that there was a fan in one of the closets until we were leaving which would have been helpful.

Very businesslike, not overly friendly but professional. Location is a 10 min walk into town but it’s uphill on the return which was ok for us but just a heads up if you’re not keen on hills.

Parking is awful here. Very limited. They won't tell you about this when you book the room. Only later do you find out it's a first come, first serve. If nothing is available you get to pay a lot for remote parking.
