Model text
Last weekend, I stayed at Riverside House during a city break. The location was excellent because it was only a ten-minute walk from the old town, and my room was clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and gave me useful restaurant recommendations. Breakfast was simple but fresh, with fruit, bread, eggs, and good coffee, and it was included in the price. The only problem was that my room faced a busy street, so it was a little noisy at night. Overall, I had a positive experience because the hotel offered good value and a convenient location. I would recommend it for a short stay, especially to travellers who plan to spend most of the day exploring the city.
