A Good Stay in the City Center!

excellent location cozy size soft bed cute staff

Its proximity to the train station was a huge advantage. I really liked the cozy size and the soft bed. The vending machine was an added bonus for quick snacks. The staff were cute and helped.

I found that the elevator was temporarily out of service, slightly inconvenient, though the stairs provided a bit of exercise.
