The location proved very convenient (close to the main transport links). I found it easy to access the hotel with clear directions. The room included basic amenities. The staff members were helpful and cute.
I noticed the coffee machine required a short wait during breakfast, due to the number of guests.

Great Stay near the Station

handy locationreally good staffsafe feelingcomfy room
I found the location very handy, just next to the station. Despite this, it felt both safe and quiet inside, SUCH good soundproofing! The staff were really good, they are friendly and very helpful. The facilities met my expectations, and the room was comfy.
The breakfast selection was a tad limited.
