A decent stay

friendly staff nice room size great location night noise traffic noise sound insulation

The staff offered a very friendly welcome. My room was a nice size and felt spacious. The location worked well for my plans.

The night time noise from traffic disturbed me. Passersby also created some noise. The sound insulation could be better.
