Convenient City Stay

central location in-room fridge handy microwave

I found the location very convenient. It's a short walk to both the train and bus stations! I also appreciated having a fridge and microwave in my room. The wine glasses were a nice touch as well.

The single-glazed windows let in quite a bit of street noise from the nearby bus depot. This made sleeping difficult at times.

Dining

8/10

The in-room microwave and fridge allow preparation of simple meals. This reduces reliance on external dining options! Several restaurants are within a short walking distance, giving you multiple choices.

Location
