mixed feelings about the stay
small room difficult access
the location was convenient to the tram station.
the room i booked was quite small, and it was difficult to move around with luggage. accessing the room on the top floor was only possible by stairs since the elevator did not reach that floor. additionally, the shower door was too small.
