convenient locationstraightforward check-inuseful amenities

The location is very convenient and a short walk from the station. The check-in process uses a QR code and is very straightforward. My room had amenities like a toothbrush, slippers, shampoo, and a mini-bar (I thought that was a nice touch).

I could hear the trains, and that did bother me a little bit.

the hotel staff was very helpful and friendly. the room was quite lovely and i really liked the vibe with the train sounds. it was comfortable for me to stay and i wish i stayed longer. plus, it is really convenient to walk from the station to the hotel.

the hotel is under a railway so there is a lot of noise from the trains. the trains run until 1 am and resume at 4:30 am. the noise is not soft and i could not block it out easily. the bathroom felt too small.

Acceptable Location, but Significant Drawbacks

convenient locationconstant noisecramped room

The location is quite convenient as it is near transportation and other amenities.

My room faced the railway. It was VERY noisy. Trains ran at all hours, and earplugs did little to help. The room itself was also cramped, and I struggled to move around comfortably with my luggage.
