Decent hotel but parking is not for free.

Good hotel, decent rooms and good beds. The website said parking is free but it is NOT. Parking only possible in the station parking nearby but is expensive. Not nice it was advertised wrongly.

It was nice and clean, and spacious. It would have been nice to have a coffee maker in the room, but not a big deal. I would definitely consider staying there again.

This hotel is really starting to look scruffy and worn out. Some poor repairs and general dirtiness lets it down badly. And the check in process is slow and cumbersome.

Functional

Typical Ibis. Sad but functional. My room was on the top floor with a decent view and very quiet. The staff were very nice. This Ibis is across the street from the station and convenient if you have an early train.
