Small rooms with the miniature shower. Location is not great. There are few good restaurants around but the area generally closes early and seemed a bit dodgy. Close to the train station, which is great but the area is what you expect around the main station.

"Hotel was very clean. A bit expensive compared the nearby hotels. Rooms are very well sound proofed there was a city marathon with very loud music and people right outside, almost unnoticeable.
