The location was fantastic, so close to the station. What a treat! restaurants of all kinds were nearby. the room was fresh. the toilet and shower were really clean. i will stay again!
street noise was quite noticeable. thin windows meant i could hear everything outside, even with earplugs. it was a little bit annoying.
