The hotel is very close to the train station. It made arrival and departure very easy. I also had a balcony in my room (I stayed for 4 nights), with a nice space to relax. The staff offered helpful directions.
The room felt a bit outdated. The shower was quite small. There was some noise from the street at night (the hotel is in a central location).

convenient stay close to station

central locationhelpful staffbaggage storagegood breakfast
i appreciated its closeness to both the main train station and the city's central areas. i found the staff helpful and friendly. baggage storage was available, so i explored the city after checking out. breakfast offered a good variety of options to start the day.
the shower was quite small, and the shower head wasn't secured properly. there was also some thick dust on the bathroom mirror. light from the hallway entered the bedroom at night, as the door didn't fit well, requiring me to prop it shut.
