Excellent Stay Close to the Station
convenient locationfriendly staffsecure storagegood breakfast
The location is very convenient, as it is close to the train station. I appreciated the friendly staff and their willingness to securely store my bag after I checked out. I also enjoyed a good breakfast. It didn't cost much more than the room. I'd book here again.
The soundproofing was lacking. It felt a bit like sleeping right on the street.

This hotel is super close to the train station. the tram stop is also close, easy to get around. the breakfast had so many choices. I saw fresh fruit and pastries. the room, a beautiful room twin beds, had two beds and plenty of space.
the air conditioning was loud and a little hard to adjust. i had trouble getting the temperature just right. it's a small thing, but it did bother me a bit at night.
