Excellent City Stay

The staff displayed genuine understanding when I had a leg injury. They accommodated me on the first floor upon my return visit. I also received a quadruple room instead of the double room I booked due to my situation. The service was excellent.

really good understandinglower floorquadruple roomstrange key
The staff demonstrated really good understanding when I had a leg accident. They accommodated my request for a lower floor room due to my injury. Upon our return, they placed us on the first floor. We had booked a double room. we were given a quadruple room because of availability and my needs. I give them a 10/10 for the help and perfect service.
The key operated both the front door and the room door, which seemed a bit strange. The security seemed a little compromised, since all rooms could be opened with the same key.
