Adequate stay near the station

convenient locationhelpful staffgood room sizeoutdated decorfirm bedused cup
The location is very convenient. I was near the main rail station and within walking distance to many attractions. The staff was nice and helpful . The room was a good size and clean.
The hotel decor seemed a bit outdated to me. I found the bed to be too firm for my liking. There was also a used drinking cup in my room when I arrived, which I found a bit off-putting.
