the location proved supremely convenient. it sits directly across from the main train station and a short walk from local bus stops. luggage lockers near the lobby aided our exploration after checkout..
the check-in experience felt impersonal due to the automated system. it involved navigating multiple machines, a process i found cumbersome after a long journey.
