i am so excited to tell you guys i had a blast! the breakfast was awesome and freshly made. i'm telling you, the location is fantastic, just a hop to the city center! our room, a king room, even had two armchairs, can you believe it? plus, the tea and coffee setup was the best ever, and we got fresh milk from a fridge!

okay, so the parking situation. it said there's parking, but it's only for like a few small cars. i booked it 'cause of the parking, but i ended up parking on the street. also, the room felt a bit outdated. but its okay, i had a great time!
