Adequate Stay, Some Minor Issues

great locationquiet placesoft towelsnon functioning steam roomtorn curtainsindifferent staff

The hotel's location is excellent. It is very close to the train station. The hotel is set back from the main street, so it is quiet. The towels were white, soft and thick. Breakfast had many choices.

The steam room was not functioning. The curtains were torn. Staff seemed indifferent when we inquired about local attractions.

The breakfast included many choices. I especially liked the croissants, coffee, and juices. The staff transported us to the station. My wife appreciated this because of her mobility limitation.

The balcony had limited use and looked rather dirty.
