Rooms with the curtains were nice. Showers could be better. The whole demographic seemed older when I was there so didn’t love that personally but otherwise loved the place!

Nice spot for a short affordable stay. Only complaint was that towels, etc. were not included in the pricing. I do not know if this is typical in European countries, but otherwise a convenient location with plenty to do nearby.
