It’s old and poorly maintained. There is hot water but the shower head drops. I was kindly loaned a kettle for the stay. Rather costly for what it is but I was only there to shower and sleep. Thank you

The room's AC didn’t work and was noisy. The mattress in the bedroom was terrible. The bathroom didn’t have proper ventilation, so it always smelled bad. In general, I don't recommend this hotel anymore.

10 minutes walk to city centre, nice hotel with very friendly staffs. Breakfast is continental selections with bacon and eggs, good enough to start our day. The room we stay with nice balcony overview the street. The bathroom is very tidy and clean but a bit old fashion. We saw the room next door with fresh look bathroom, maybe next time should request the renovated bathroom room. Overall very nice hotel.

It was a good stay, staff friendly and generally helpful. We did ask for extra pillows and towels, only 1 bath and 1 hand towel in the room, for two people, but did not receive the asked for items. Hotel in a good location for the train station and central city area. The hotel interior was a little tired but perfectly clean.

Terrible breakfast (I could’ve made more food if I was at home) and the facilities were super outdated - I couldn’t believe that it was a 4* hotel! The room card stopped working 4 times during my 2-night visit and although the front desk were happy to help me, the first time I had to wait for over 15-20minutes! Overall a bad experience
