Convenient stay near the bus station

great location short walk helpful service
The location is great. It is a short walk to the centre. The bus station is also just a few minutes away. The apartment includes everything needed for a comfortable stay. Ines at the reception provided helpful service.
I noticed limited toilet paper provision. Only one small roll was provided upon arrival for a room for four people. This required a trip to find a supermarket on the first night. It seemed unnecessarily frugal.

The reception staff were responsive. They promptly addressed all my requests. Ines at the front desk was particularly helpful and happy to assist with any questions i had.
Dining

The kitchenette is well equipped with a dishwasher. It also includes a kettle, a toaster, and a proper teapot. The electric stove allows preparation of basic meals. A good size fridge is also present.
