really good location baggage storage helpful staff clogged shower drain used mugs difficult shower

The location is really good. It is within a short walk of the train station. The staff was helpful with baggage storage. Breakfast included eggs and cheese.

The shower drain was clogged. I had to turn the water on and off. This made showering difficult. Used mugs were not changed daily.
