We were so lucky to have met the most lovely concierge who made our check in process the best. He was so accommodating and helpful. The room was very clean and cute. Great location to walk to the train station so you can get anywhere. Also a cute downtown nearby with lots of great food options for a quick snack. Would stay here again, definitely recommend!

Only stayed for one night. Leaving the luggage before & after Check-out was standard service. Public transport per bus or train is just walking distance. Supermarkets & a lot of resraurants nearby. Unfortunately, our room had no AC and it was unusually hot for end of May.
