rooftop views AND KINDNESS

gluten-free breakfastlovely balconyspiral staircase
the receptionist was so sweet and ensured i HAD gluten-free breakfast options. it was so easy to find safe options, even gf bread, even though there COULD have been cross-contamination. a sweet little balcony gave me views over the rooftops. the room had comfortable beds and a generously sized bathroom.
the lift only reaches the fifth floor , and my room was on the sixth. i HAD to carry my luggage up a spiral staircase. the night shift staff WERE a little indifferent.

The lift only went to the 5th floor. I had to lug my suitcase up a narrow, winding staircase to the 6th floor. The night shift staff was dismissive when I asked about it. the shower did not switch from the tap to the shower setting! I found this to be INCREDIBLY frustrating.

The room was a decent size. The bathroom was nice. The staff were always engaging and ensured I was comfortable. It was very clean and the decor was pleasant.
The lift only accommodates one person. I noticed the sockets were old. Some of them did not function properly. They require fixing.
