The hotel has a prime location for those traveling without a car. It is a short walk to both the train station and the city center. Check in went smoothly, and I had a huge room. The room included coffee, tea, and bottled water.
The bathroom felt old and dingy. The shower curtain was very clingy, and there was nothing I could do about it. The tub shower combo was very high off the ground, so getting out was dangerous. The room was hot, and there was no air conditioning.
