charming stay near the station
efficient check-in friendly staff quiet atmosphere
i appreciated the efficient online check-in process i completed before arrival. i found the hotel surprisingly quiet, though street noise woke me briefly one night (it was around midnight). the staff were friendly at check-out, and i liked that everything was straightforward.
it was not a pleasant sight, and it did detract somewhat from the overall experience of the room.

breakfast provided good options to start the day with plenty of variety available. my partner has dietary needs, the breakfast staff ensured a gluten-free breakfast was ready (this shows attention to detail).
