helpful map hot meal difficult shower damaged furniture
the staff printed a map to help me navigate the train station. i was also happy breakfast was a hot meal.
the shower was hard to adjust. also, i noticed the room floor and walls could have been cleaner, and some furniture showed signs of wear.

a decent stay overall
convenient location train station city center air conditioning small fan basic service
the location was convenient, not far from the train station. i found it close to the city center. the concept of the library charmed me.
The lack of air conditioning was the biggest issue. the small fan provided some relief. it was not enough. the staff was polite in a minimal way.

not the worst, but...
no reply hot shower
Okay, so a fire alarm decided to go off at 1 a.m. a fun surprise! it terrified my toddler, and then i emailed the desk to ask what happened. i received zero replies. apparently, someone's hot shower steam set it off. Maybe they should just turn off the showers at night.

train station perfect location parking garage better breakfast narrow room awful elevator no views
the location is near the train station. a parking garage are not too far away. supermarkets and restaurants are close also. breakfast are better than i thought it would be.
the room are too narrow, don't believe the photos. make sure you don't reserve a room in the basement. the elevator are awful, there is no good views. the windows overlooks other buildings and rooms without windows.
