the hotel's proximity to the train station was a real bonus for my travel plans. trams and buses stopped right outside, so navigating the city was easy. the breakfast was solid.
the room was quite warm. the air conditioning unit struggled to keep it cool, even when turned up high.

The hotel is very close to the train station. This offers various restaurants and food options. The location is quite convenient. Breakfast had good value, and there was plenty of it. I found the room comfortable and very warm.
My room had no minibar or kettle. I also found no drinking water, glasses, or coffee and tea machine. There were also no power plugs near the bed. The bathroom had one all-in-one gel. The hairdryer seemed weak. It was basically useless.
