I stayed at this hotel and found it to be a mixed experience. The location is ideal for being centrally located and close to the train and bus stations, making it convenient for traveling. However, the rooms were disappointing with ongoing renovations, small size, and noise from a nearby nightclub. The service was friendly and accommodating, but there were some lapses. The dining options were limited and not impressive, although the cafe next door was decent. Overall, while the price was reasonable, there were aspects that need improvement.

The room I had was not the best experience. It was small and plagued by ongoing renovations, with sticky doors and masking tape all around. The noise from the adjacent nightclub was bothersome.

The hotel's location is great, especially being centrally located, close to the train station, and near the town hall. However, being on the road-side of the building made it potentially noisy at times.

The hotel is conveniently located in the city center, near the train station and surrounded by restaurants and bars. The rooms were average, with a comfortable bed, but the noise from the pub next door and the ongoing decorations created some disturbances. The service was excellent, with exceptionally helpful and friendly staff. The dining options were limited before 8 am at the cafe next door. Overall, a decent stay with some noise drawbacks.

6.6/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was too small to spend much time in, and being woken up by the early beer delivery for the pub next door wasn't ideal. On the bright side, the staff were very accommodating and nice, making my unplanned stop more comfortable. The location, right next to the station, was convenient for my needs, but the lack of choice in breakfast was a drawback.
