It was super noisy in our room from construction noise. We didn’t run the AC so we had to open the window. I know this won’t last forever, but it was really noisy all night long!

Loved how close to the train station this hotel is, as well as lots of shopping and dining options right around. The breakfast buffet was very nice. I was allowed to check in earlier than typical check-in which was super helpful after travel from the U.S.

So convenient for the rail station but also quiet and a very nice room. The staff were lovely. Area around the hotel was pretty, walking away from the station. We walked for 15-20 minutes and found the most beautiful restaurant by the water. Fabulous! Bed was a little squishy but otherwise perfect!
