The hotel is conveniently near the main train station. I found it easy to get around.. the location was a plus. The staff was friendly. When i requested extra towels, they provided them promptly.

I stayed for several nights. My room was never cleaned, even though cleaning was promised. The cost of breakfast was high, but its quality and variety were disappointing.
