A decent place to stay

breakfast restaurantfood varietydrink varietypublic transportsecurity deposit
The staff at the breakfast restaurant were Really good. They ensured every guest felt welcome and attended to. I found a great variety of foods and drinks during breakfast. The public transport connections were good and convenient.
I booked this hotel because it featured a spa and a pool. Upon arrival, I learned they were renovating. This information should have been communicated in advance. I found this misleading. I also found it strange that the hotel asked for a 50-euro security deposit. I have never encountered this before.
