the location proved quite convenient being near the train station.
i encountered issues with the heating system and found the temperature uncomfortably low upon arrival, it created a less than desirable atmosphere.

The staff provided private parking. This was a HUGE help.
The wash basin in my room was blocked. The TV had no WiFi connection. I also noticed there were no basic amenities available, like a kettle.
