The location is amazing! I loved that it was just across from the central station. The free, fast internet was also a big plus. The breakfast was really good, I thought. I liked the 24-hour free coffee and tea.
The room I was in was the smallest hotel room. The lighting made the room not a very pleasant place. The towels were worn. I did not like them.

the room size was quite small, i noticed this. we had limited space to move around. the noise from the nearby street was sometimes noticeable. it made it a little difficult to sleep at times. also, the bathroom lacked sufficient counter space for toiletries.
