A balanced stay

bus access warm room no breakfast late notification
The location was convenient. Many bus routes provided easy access to travel to different places (even late at night). The room was also nice. It felt warm and cute.
I learned breakfast is not offered. I was informed of this after I prepaid, not ideal.

Excellent Stay with Helpful Staff

helpful staff early arrival daily cleaning
The staff was kind and helpful . They prepared my room even though I arrived early. My room was cleaned every day with fresh tea, coffee, and chocolate (a nice bonus!).
I found the room to be rather small.
Dining

There are pubs and shops for groceries or dining located within 400 meters of the location. I found this very convenient for grabbing a quick bite or stocking up on essentials.

The hotel has easy access to the city center using a convenient bus route. A bus stop for panoramic city tours is located right in front of the accommodation. I found both options very helpful.
