Central Location, Great Value

central locationfriendly staffpublic transport vouchersound isolation
I appreciated the central location close to the train station. The staff was really friendly and helpful. I also received a free public transport voucher for my entire stay. THIS was a huge bonus. The room included a desk, a mirror, a sink, and wardrobe space, which met my needs perfectly.
The sound isolation wasn't great. I could hear noises from other rooms. This became particularly noticeable when someone mistakenly tried to enter my room late at night. It was a minor disruption, but BETTER soundproofing would be beneficial.
Dining

The hotel does not have its own restaurant. BUT many cafes and coffee shops are located close by. This provides convenient options for meals and refreshments throughout the day.
Rooms

The single room includes a single bed, a desk and vanity, and a full-length mirror. A wardrobe area offers space for clothes. A shelf with a lamp sits above the bed.

Convenient Location and Helpful Staff

professional gentlemanabsorbent towelsthin walls
The gentleman at reception was very professional and helpful. He provided good advice. I was able to see the train station from the hotel! It was really close and very worth it. It is surrounded by shops, restaurants and coffee bars. The bed was comfy and the sheets felt fine. The bathroom down the hall remained clean! Towels were big and absorbent. Sink in my room was nice and delivered really hot water.
The sound isolation needs improvement. Walls are thin and doors are old. I could hear people talking in other rooms. I could hear the water being flushed too. It didn't bother me too much since I use earplugs to sleep.
