i found a car parking space right in the middle of town. the staff helped me a lot when i arrived and when i left. my room was sparkling clean and i thought the bed felt really nice to sleep on.
the room felt smaller than i expected judging by the photos i saw. it was still adequate though.

central locationloud musicpoor soundproofing
The location is perfect for exploring, being a short walk to the town's attractions. The staff ensured my parking space was available upon arrival (I appreciated that).
The bar music was quite loud. I could hear it clearly in my room until closing time. This noise was disruptive. I was also disappointed by the lack of soundproofing, as I could hear doors banging frequently.
