    cozy breakfast
    comfortable room
    tricky wi-fi

    The double room we stayed in was super comfy, and I loved that there was tea and coffee provided right in the room. The hotel had a cozy spot to unwind with some drinks in the evening and a delightful light breakfast in the mornings. Just a heads-up, the Wi-Fi was a bit tricky to connect to, but that didn't spoil our overall fun! 😊
