The hotel was conveniently close to the railway station and very close to the center, making it a great location for exploring the city. The rooms were cozy with nice little touches like coffee, tea, and toiletries, but I missed having a hairdryer available. The service was excellent, especially with the friendly housekeeping staff offering a welcoming drink. However, the dining experience was average, with only a homemade soup available. Overall, a good value for money stay with some room for improvement.
