We enjoyed our stay!
Pros:

We did not have breakfast. We only had tea.

We forgot our phone charger, and when we enquired about it the following day, the housekeeping staff confirmed that they had found it and promised to keep it safely for us.

Cons:

Nothing.

A spacious and comfortable stay, slightly off the beaten path and less modern, but good value for money.
Pros:

It was my first time staying at this location, as I usually go to the sister hotel in town. This one feels a bit off the beaten path, which I actually enjoyed. It’s quite spacious, comfortable, and offers good value for money.

Cons:

The facilities are a bit less modern compared to the sister hotel, but everything still works well and is comfortable. The location might also feel a bit out of the way for some.
