The staff were very helpful and friendly and we were grateful to be able to check in when we arrived early. They also stored our luggage and provided somewhere to shower and change before our late flight. The rooms felt new and clean and the beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was included and delicious. Location is very central, an easy walk from the train station. Would happily stay here again and recommend to others.

8/10 Good

Pros: great location, walkable to the train station, restaurants, etc; great breakfast and patio area. Cons: rooms were small; air conditioning was anemic and pre-set (could not adjust); expensive for what it was ($300/night for two).
