Was close to the train station so easy to access. Getting around inside the hotel with a large suitcase was a little more difficult as the walk ways were very narrow.

Our room was in sort of a narrow basement part of the building, but its layout was clever, felt cosy and clean, and not too small! Bathroom was kind of cold, but the shower was nice. Very good location for the price!
