Pleasant Stay Near the Station

train station easy check-in clean room

I found the location very close to the train station, a huge plus. Check-in was smooth. I received the necessary codes promptly. The room was clean. It had tea and coffee supplies. It's nice to have these small conveniences available.

I noticed the window in my room did not open fully, I would have liked fresh air.

Dining

8/10

Although I did not see a restaurant, tea and coffee facilities were available in the room. A kettle was provided! along with cups, very useful for making hot drinks. A small fridge was also present.
