the hotel has a great location - right across from the train/bus station, which was convenient for me. the area is not the greatest though, as staff has to let you in (to block questionable people from entering). overall, I had a good stay

This was a great cheap place to stay. The beds were comfortable, pillows were good. And the place was clean. Only dislike was the amount of people smoking in the halls and too.s and right outside our window! As non smokers this is really unpleasant. But in Europe it seems smoking is pretty common still.

Difficult parking

The hotel is good, clean and comfortable. However it doesn’t have any designated parking and I found it difficult to find a parking space nearby. Luckily on a Sunday night parking was free until 0930 on the Monday morning

How low can we go?

I never stayed in such a small place with the smelliest toilet/shower combination and bathroom door that barely opened and closed past the bed. We were allowed to check in early but reception lacked any friendliness or warmth. Location was next to our car rental and across the street from the train station which was exactly what we needed. I would consider other hotel options adjacent to this hotel in the future.

Two night stay.

Perfect location for the station. Good wifi and helpful staff. Did not need parking and did not have breakfast. Did the job as described but it is a budget option, room has all essentials but no kettle or refrigerator. Fine for 1 or 2 nights but would not want to stay any longer .

Quick and basic

The room was fine basic but clean, the area wasn't great right next to the station and parking wasn't easy. If you want a quick night it's fine but if you are driving choose an out of town hotel

This place is right across from the train station so it was a necessary place to stay for 1 night . It was clean inside. Rooms are dated and the breakfast is not worth paying for. Not safe area so when you left you took all valuables but didn’t feel Safe walking around with them. Lots of loud fights and police constantly in the area. So no would not stay there again. Would take a cab from somewhere else. I see why they lock their front doors in the evening. The area is so dirty. Drug deals and people peeing on the street. Yuck Staff were lovely and helpful tho.

The staff at the property was so friendly and helpful. The woman who checked me in was very fast and efficient. The night man reminded where the internet code was. The day manager stored my bags while I toured the city. We talked about the area and the weather. The breakfast was very good and inexpensive. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.
