charmed stay near the station

convenient location quiet room adequate breakfast
The hotel's proximity to the train station was a real boon, only a short walk away. double glazing kept my room very quiet. I slept soundly. i appreciated the friendly welcome i received. the self-service breakfast, picked up from the landing, was adequate for my needs.
the shower temperature was difficult to adjust, it was very hot.

Average Stay with Noticeable Issues

smoke smell basic breakfast
I found several aspects disappointing. The room had a lingering smell of smoke. It was quite unpleasant. an emergency light stayed on all night. It made the room too bright to sleep comfortably. The complimentary breakfast was very basic. It only included toast and jam. I expected more considering the price I paid.

surprisingly good stay

The room was clean and the bed was comfy. Breakfast included super clean linen and towels. I found good sized room facing away from any street noise. The hotel faces the station.
The lighting at night was TOO bright. I was kept awake.

The hotel sits conveniently in a vibrant area. It is directly ACROSS from the station, a great benefit for travelers. The area felt safe and was well-lit at night, made exploring easy.
