It was a pleasure staying in this friendly hotel for a few days! A quick walk from the main railway station, and a convenient location for visiting the main sights of the city. There is a large grocery store also in the area. Perfect for my needs, I would definitely stay there again!

Does the trick!

Right at the train station, but you cannot hear the trains at all, which was a pleasant surprise. Small rooms, but good for a quick overnight or two. Standard breakfast, but no complaints.

This is a very basic property with small rooms. However, that is all we needed for this part of our travels. It was clean, the staff were really good, and it was a great option for an economical stay when you're not spending a lot of time in the room. We really liked that it was a short walk to the train station.
