The location is GREAT (so close to everything!). I found free parking which was a big plus. The interior had a very innovative design.

The room size felt quite small.

Awesome Value! Clean and Convenient

smooth check-in clean room convenient location nearby station

The digital check-in was super smooth, I thought. It made getting into my room quick and easy, I'm telling you. The room was quite clean and offered the basics I needed for my stay. I also found the location convenient, especially for getting to the train station!

I noticed the walls were a bit thin, and I could hear some noise from neighboring rooms. That's all I have to say.

quiet area breakfast places cozy rooms

The location is convenient. It is a quiet area. Some restaurants and breakfast places are nearby. I found the rooms cozy. Check-in and check-out used an app.

There was no responsible person available to attend to emergencies at night.
