I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located near the train station and plenty of lively restaurants. The rooms were modern, exceptionally clean, and had a warm, cozy feel. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially with the early check-in. However, the breakfast could use a bit more variety, and the dining area was on the smaller side. Overall, it offered great value for money, making it a solid choice for my trip.
