location good, but room issues

low pressure stained bedsheet

i stayed in the room and found a few problems. the shower had almost no water pressure, and what little there was, it was cold. this was a problem since i wanted a proper shower after long walks. i also noticed a stain on the bedsheet, a little off-putting.

easy check-in tidy room perfect location

Self check-in and check-out made the process very convenient. The room was clean and tidy, with everything i needed. The location worked great. All essential places were less than a five minute walk away (even the shops).

The hallway had a slight unpleasant smell upon entering.

really good location camping chair

The location was really good and close to train and bus stations. The room was equiped very well. I found a camping chair, which can be put up by the window. The owner upgraded our room when they saw my husband was tall.

The shower had no hot water. I had to wash in the basin. There were problems on entry to the hotel.

Service

The hotel has a very nice position near shops and the station. There is a good local cafe with few tourists, which I enjoyed. The location allowed us to explore with convenience.
