8.4Verified guest“The coffee machine was a game-changer, and the staff were unbelievably friendly and helpful. Location opposite the train station was incredibly convenient, and the common area was cozy. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean everything was, which I assume explains the slightly higher price. I'll definitely return if I'm ever in need of a place to stay.”
