The staff were friendly and professional. The underground car park was easy to access.
The receptionist was initially rude and unhelpful. She didn't explain the parking or amenities. the parking was expensive at 20 euros per day. The spaces were also very small, i scratched my car trying to park it. the sheets and shower had an unpleasant smell. It seemed like a dog odor.
