I loved the location being so close to everything, especially the train station, yet it was incredibly quiet, which was a nice surprise. The facilities were great, with fresh milk in the fridge and tea available in my room, making it feel cozy. The cleanliness was commendable, and it was nice to have someone tidy up the bathroom daily. the staff were welcoming and helpful, contributing to a comfortable stay.
