The location was indeed excellent. It was close to the train station so I could reach everything fast enough.

The room felt cramped. I barely had space to move around. The shower situation was not good. The water temperature kept fluctuating wildly. breakfast was supposed to be included, but it turned out to be only available on weekends, what a joke.
