excellent locationcooked eggsfresh fruitscoffee machine
the location was excellent it allowed short walks or brief tram rides to all attractions. breakfast featured eggs cooked to order i chose an omelette with cheese and bacon. a variety of sliced meats cheeses and fresh fruits were on offer. the coffee machine provided many choices throughout the day.
the room felt a little tight for the price i paid it was still manageable but i would have liked a bit more space to move around freely.
