the bed was comfy, i will say. location was good for walking into town or getting the train. the facility seemed clean and quiet, being on a side street.
there wasn't any staff at the hotel. i was not given a code for the front door. they forgot to give it to me and nobody answered my call when i called to ask for it. the room, was much smaller than the pictures.
