“I particularly appreciate that the hotel sits right by the train station, but guests aren't bothered by noise, and the cooked breakfast, with omelettes and French toast, is a real standout. Rooms are well-maintained and come equipped with thoughtful amenities, while the staff are notably friendly and helpful; it makes for a memorable stay. I found it to be a very recommendable choice.”
