serene stay in an artful space

friendly staff classy decoration excellent breakfast professional service
I noticed the professional service immediately. breakfast proved excellent. facilities looked new and featured classy decor. the staff impressed me, they were very friendly and quite knowledgeable. i also appreciated the availability of a nearby coop. Convenience was certainly a plus!
My room was quite small. it lacked a desk, a slight inconvenience. the room also felt very dark. I noticed there was very little natural sunlight.

heating only inconsistent housekeeping
the location was acceptable, being a short walk to the train station.
The room i received differed significantly from what i booked. specifically, i reserved a room with air conditioning, but the unit only provided heating, rendering it useless . this discrepancy was disappointing and affected my overall comfort (i expect a certain level of precision). also, housekeeping was inconsistent. My room was not serviced daily, inconvenient.
