The bathroom WAS very small. The water pressure made it difficult to hold the shower on, IT kept bouncing back to the bath tap. it was not great for showering.

Reasonable Stay with Some Drawbacks

excellent locationcanal viewbreakfast varietysmall roombathroom conditiondifficult door

The location was excellent. I had easy access to main attractions. My room featured five windows looking out to the canal. These provided some nice views. The breakfast offered a good start to my day, with a variety of options available in the restaurant.

The room was small. I noticed limited space for luggage. The bathroom needed some attention. I found hairs in the bath upon arrival. I had some difficulty operating the door. It used a key and often stuck when I tried to open it.
