Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Central enjoys a superb location right across the street from the train station, which many guests find exceptionally convenient. Its proximity to the main square is also a plus for exploring the city. The rooms are generally clean and spacious, some offering a refrigerator; however, some guests have noted that the TV placement made it difficult to watch from bed. Breakfast is a good start to the day, being well-prepared and generous.
