Ogólnie ok.
Pros:

Uprzejma i sprawna obsługa. Bardzo czysto. Dobra lokalizacja, blisko do restauracji i kawiarni.

Cons:

Wjazd na podziemny parking raczej dla mistrzów kierownicy. Wjazd z ulicy (strefa dla pieszych) wąską bramą ze zjazdem w prawo w dół do garażu. Trzeba uważać na wysokość. Ciasne miejsca postojowe.
