Central Stay, A good experience

helpful staffsoft bedsadequate breakfastnoticeable noise
The staff were helpful and friendly. They assisted with tour bookings and provided useful information. The room was clean and the beds were wonderfully soft, a welcome comfort after long days exploring. I found the breakfast to be quite adequate with lots of choices, setting me up nicely for the day.
Unfortunately, the noise level from the busy street was quite noticeable at night. I THINK better soundproofing would SIGNIFICANTLY improve the experience.

i found the location ideal with a short walk from the train station. my room was quite large for a single room and i liked the breakfast included in the room rate. (the coffee was great!). there is also a restaurant and bar connected to the hotel and that felt inviting.
the furniture in the room seemed old. the shower was not great. i also noticed there was no safe in the room.
