The location is great close to the train station and to the stores. The room was ok but the fast that you can hear your neighbors doing their stuff wasn’t friendly. Breakfast was light snacks to take away ( cookies, cracker, juice and healthy snacks bars ). TBH I was looking forward for a served breakfast. Overall experience was good but the fast that i couldn’t sleep well some nights because you can clearly hear the screams and noise from the other room and also i thought that the breakfast was a hot served breakfast. ##### Luis Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Evelyn 15 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great night's sleep!!
