Great hotel, it was my 2nd visit. I especially like the basement sauna. I liked that there is a bike storage area, though you need to be able to lift your bike above your head to hang it on the hook. They did seem short-staffed, though I think that’s true for most hotels these days. Everyone who was there was really kind and helpful.
