fantastic stay!
super clean room modern design comfy bed friendly staff
The location is spot on. It's just minutes from the town, tram, and beach. the room had a super clean, bright, modern design, and the bed offered great comfort. i found tea and coffee facilities right in the room. Nice soft white towels and toiletries were also provided. the lady handing out parking permits and the young man at check-in were professional and friendly.
i think a shelf in the shower would be helpful, but that's just a minor thing!
