The location was convenient and within a short walk to the town center.
The room felt quite dated. I spotted peeling paint in the bathroom and a noticeable damp smell, and the shower had very low water pressure. The bed was too firm for my taste, and I had trouble sleeping comfortably all nights of my stay.
