The staff helped me check in early. They also kept my luggage in my room. This service occurred without me asking. The location is two minutes from the bus stop. This bus takes you to the lakes.
The car park has very tight parking spots.

The parking area was a JOKE. Seriously , the spaces are so tight I thought I might need to hire a contortionist just to get out of my car. Also , the TV subtitles kept popping up , which was endlessly distracting and ultimately made it impossible to follow anything.
