Great short stay!

bike safekeeping town centre great location
I really liked that the hotel allowed me to bring my bike inside for safekeeping. It was super convenient traveling by bike! The hotel is also just a short walk from the town centre. This location worked out really well.
The hot and cold taps were both connected to hot water. I really wanted a cold glass of water.
Facilities

The hotel offers free parking, a real bonus (saves you money!). Parking availability is good. during peak times, street parking might be necessary as an alternative. I found this to be a great feature.
