Really good Value and Friendliness

friendly staff cozy room great selection
The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They allowed me to store my luggage after checkout (before my train). The room was cozy and well-equipped. The continental breakfast included croissants, cereals, fruit, yogurts, juice, tea, coffee, and milk in the fridge. It was a decent selection.
The staircase was steep and narrow, making it a bit difficult to manage with luggage.
