Excellent Stay!

convenient location reasonable price clean parking spaces train station

I booked a Standard Double Room. The location is excellent, about 5 minutes to the train station and 10 minutes to the City Centre. Parking is available in the hotel basement at a reasonable price. There were plenty of clean parking spaces.

The air conditioning in the room was a bit outdated, so it didn't really work efficiently.

Rooms

The room had a safe, a kettle, instant coffee, and tea bags. a fridge to store drinks and fruit. The bathroom and toilet are separate. This is convenient, but you need to walk over to wash your hands after using the toilet.
