Fantastic Stay near Everything!

great locationfriendly staffdelicious breakfaststreet noise
The hotel's location REALLY impressed me. It's close to the train station. It's also a short walk to key attractions! The staff greeted me warmly and gave helpful tips on local spots for dining, which I found useful. They are very friendly. Breakfast offered a huge variety. EVERYTHING was fresh and tasty, I will remember it.
The room I had was next to a busy street, and the noise from the traffic was quite noticeable, particularly during the night. I think better soundproofing in the rooms facing the street would help with this problem.
