The location was ideal near the train station. I was able to quickly access transportation options. The staff was friendly and helpful. They assisted us with our luggage storage needs before check-in. The room I had included tea and coffee facilities. This was very convenient for a quick refreshment.
I observed silverfish in the room. They looked from a hole by the wall. I also noticed cobwebs and a large spider. These indicated that the room needed better upkeep. The blinds were dirty. They also did not function correctly. The shared bathroom had issues. The taps sprayed water in multiple directions.
