"The property has an excellent location - close to train station, restaurants and shopping. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. We loved the storage room and lockers to safely store our bags after check out. The room was very small and only had an interior window looking to a community area where people were sitting and doing some activities. For the price, I would expect towels and soap included and the bed made for the guests but we knew what we are paying so I can’t complain."
