My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were small and a bit challenging to maneuver, but they were clean, well-furnished, and quite cozy. The service was friendly and welcoming, although more attention could have been given to serving. The location was superb, just a few minutes walk from the main train station, offering easy access to public transport and good restaurants. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of items to choose from. However, the hotel lacked some facilities that could have enhanced the overall experience.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was very clean and comfortable, which was great for a budget traveler like me. However, the lack of security was concerning as the door was never locked, allowing anyone to walk in off the street.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms lacked soundproofing and felt a bit small for longer stays, the location was excellent with easy access to public transport. The service was average, with some interactions feeling impersonal, but the staff were nice and accommodating. The dining options were decent, though somewhat limited, and the facilities provided were satisfactory for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were uncomfortably small and not very clean, with noise from the corridor waking me up in the morning. On the bright side, the service was top-notch, with a charming receptionist who was incredibly helpful. The location was convenient, being close to the central station, but it didn't feel very safe. The dining experience had limited choices, but the price was reasonable. Overall, a mix of positives and negatives.
