friendly staff good-sized kitchen convenient location warm room missing air conditioning broken towel holder

The staff was really friendly and helpful upon my arrival. My room had a good-sized kitchen and a lounge area (perfect for unwinding). The location was ideal. It was just a short walk to the city center.

The room was quite warm. There was no air conditioning. Only a small fan was available, not sufficient. The bathroom towel holder came off the wall (a bit inconvenient).
