Really good Location and Clean Room

The hotel benefits from a station proximity, providing quick transport links. Its location away from the main shopping ensures reduced noise. I found the option to store luggage after check-out convenient, allowing exploration before my train departure.
The reception wasn't consistently staffed, so I spent some time searching for assistance.
