Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is perfect for exploring the town, but it might get noisy due to its placement on a traffic street during weekends. The rooms, although small, come with coffee and snacks, but the bathroom could use more space. The service was wonderful and attentive, especially during breakfast. The dining experience offered a decent variety but could have been better. The facilities are well-maintained, though not in the main building.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms in the main building were comfortable and quiet, with every little detail in place, yet they looked a bit tired and the bathroom didn't meet the standard. On the positive side, the service was kind, clean, and updated, while the location was conveniently downtown, making it easy to move around. Unfortunately, the noise from the traffic street on Friday and Saturday nights was a downside. The dining options were good, offering a decent variety of dishes. The facilities were satisfactory, but there was some room for improvement. Overall, it was an okay stay with some areas needing attention.
The hotel's location is perfect, downtown across from the train station, making it very easy to get around and enjoy the town. The rooms were a bit loud in the main building and could use some updates, especially in the bathroom standards. The service was very nice and helpful, but some amenities were missing. The dining experience was above average with a decent variety. The facilities were well-maintained.
The hotel has a convenient location, just across the street from the train station, making it perfect for any activities in town. The rooms were in good condition but a bit bland with limited TV choices. The service was friendly, although there was a small issue with not replacing used toiletries. The dining experience was fantastic, especially the morning grilled fish. The facilities were clean and updated, enhancing the overall stay.
The hotel's rooms, though lacking windows and containing very old features, were surprisingly clean and spacious despite their 1-star standard. The noise from the traffic street direction could be bothersome on weekends. The service was commendable, with prompt fixes provided without hesitation, and the prime location near the station and various establishments made the stay convenient. The dining experience, while above average with a variety of options, could have been slightly better, especially concerning salads. Overall, the facilities met expectations.
