The hotel was in a great location. Rooms clean, bed comfy and shower good. We struggled with working the lights, as there was no switch for the main lights so we had to turn all the lights on/off at a time, That may have been my mistake. I wasn’t keen on the plastic bathroom but for the price we had a good stay,

check in was super easy and fast.. This hotel is located in a very convenient location. Easy access to the train station and only 3-5 minutes away for restaurants. I trully enjoyed my stay here. The only thing i do have to say is about the bed. The tein mattess topper kept sliding off the bed and it was pretty uncomfortable because i have to keep fixing it to stay in place. Other than that rhis hotel is highly recommended.

Great location. Excellent check in experience but receptionist on checkout was not friendly. Bed comfortable. However, the room was very dark and very basic with ill fitting shower curtain and no drawer space. No wardrobe - just a rack with coat hangers. Internet connection very poor which also affected tv functionality.
