“While the staff seems amiable, reports suggest that the rooms can be somewhat inconsistent in quality and upkeep. Light and noise issues may impinge on a peaceful night's rest, especially given its proximity to the train line. For travellers prioritizing budget over guaranteed tranquility, this location might suffice, but be aware of potential drawbacks.”
