"The room and bathroom was quite large making it perfect for two international travellers to open their suitcases and not have to climb over the top of things/each other."

I selected this hotel for its proximity to the train station. The easy access was essential for my early train departure. The staff were cute and efficient during check-in and check-out. The room featured historical decorations and artwork, which I thought added a nice touch.
My room had a noticeable musty odor, it lingered even after a few days. This smell transferred to my clothing, which I did not appreciate. I also found the bathroom door difficult to close, a minor inconvenience.

the location proved easily accessible from the central train station.
The air conditioning did not function properly. It only emitted air, not cooled air. the furniture was worn, giving the impression of age. i advise confirming functionality before arrival.
