The room was warm, quiet, and decorated nicely! I found the staff cute and helpful. The location on the canal offered nice walks in the evenings. The beds were very good, and the room was clean and spacious.
The shower head in the room was a little naff, it wouldn't stay up, though everything else was spot on.
