Excellent Stay Near Transportation

convenient location easy access baggage storage
The location was very convenient. It was right across from the train station. I found it easy to reach restaurants nearby with just a short walk. I appreciated the option to leave my baggage before check-in, which allowed me to explore the area without carrying heavy luggage.
The street-facing room picked up a lot of noise. Sleeping with the window open was difficult due to the passing trains.
Service
