A clean, fairly spacious room with a good bathroom offering plenty of hot water instantly. Disappointingly there was no room service, no information booklet and no complementary things such as water, biscuits, drink making facilities in the room.

Bad and confusing Reservation system

My confirmation was not found at Check-In, even giving your staff my reservation. After going into other system they found it but price without Breakfast, but in your confirmation in the e-mail showed room+bfst included.Since it was cleared, the staff assured me that all will be OK with rgd to bfst. Upon checking-out, I was again asked to pay for Bfst. I protestd and agn showed your staff the e-mail confirmation.
