Pleasant Stay Near the Station

train stationeasy check-inclean 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.
