The hotel provided complimentary tea and coffee in the room. The room also featured a comfortable chair and maintained a good temperature , devoid of any unwanted smells. I also found the breakfast very satisfactory. The staff were friendly and the breakfast offered a good filling start to the day.
The shower was electric , and I was not immediately aware that the power switch was located outside the bathroom.
