Had two rooms and didn't tell us who was assigned to which room. The internet and tv remote was tied to room number and name assigned. Was such a mess that we couldn't use the tv even after we got wi fi. Very confusing. Hotel very nice and breakfast was great. Very eruopean feel. Would reccomend if your a tech geek as location great. Parking on you own at public lots which are nearby.
