Convenient Stay Near the Train Station

convenient location comfortable bed cute staff
I appreciated the superb location near the train station. This proximity made arrival and departure very easy. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The staff were cute and the provided breakfast offered good value and convenience.
The bathroom was quite small and not properly maintained (some fixtures needed attention).

faulty air conditioning poor soundproofing
The room i had was quite disappointing, to be honest. the air conditioning in the room didn't work properly. It was stuck on a low setting and the room felt stuffy. also, the soundproofing wasn't great. I could hear street noise late into the night, and that really bothered me, especially since i wanted to sleep well.
