Convenient and worth the money.

It is the perfect place to stay when going to Spark Arena. The place is beautiful if you like historical places. It was raining when we came, a lot of leaks in the lobby. Also, no toilet paper in the lobby toilet. The room is spacious, clean, and have everything we need for our overnight stay.

Caverous old big city train station was really unique and interesting tho a bit unsettling. It was like being accidentally locked into a large, old public building overnight with no one around, not even any ghosts…

Worst experience I’ve had. Upon check in, dude at reception was telling off his employee how unsafe things are. Utterly, unprofessional how he’s handling the desk. Dodgy place. The room itself is H&S risk. Had my toe hit by the toilet uneven surface floor and bled.
