The train station is just a short walk. This made getting around quite convenient. The room was spacious and bright. Markets, a Domino's, and a McDonald's are very close to the premises, which I found helpful.

The Wi-Fi was not working. This complicated roaming issues.

the staff were friendly and helpful. the room was exactly what i needed, just somewhere to sleep. the bathroom facilities were well kept (i did notice). it met expectations.

the music from the pub downstairs was very loud and went on until 2am. i had no advanced warning about this. wifi did not work, a drawback because of roaming charges (i needed it).
