Fantastic Location and Excellent Service

train station friendly staff excellent breakfast
I really appreciated how close the hotel was to the train station. The walk was a mere few minutes. The staff were friendly and efficient. I was in my room within minutes of arrival. Breakfast was really good. I was impressed!!!
There was no coffee refill in my room after cleaning. My mug was left dirty and unchanged. It was not a big problem for me, but I would expect a higher standard for the price.
