Decent stay due to location

helpful staffconvenient stationclose centermisleading picturesbasic roombasic breakfast
I found the staff helpful. The hotel is handy for the train and bus station. It is close to town centre.
The website pictures did not reflect my actual room. It was very basic with a very 1960s look. The breakfast was also very basic.
