Clean and Accessible Accommodation

convenient locationfriendly staffpancake machinemissing curtains
The location is very convenient. I found it was a manageable walk to the central station. It allowed for easy access to transportation. Check-in was smooth and the staff were very friendly. They provided quick assistance. The breakfast option was very good. I especially enjoyed the pancake machine.
There were no curtains on the beds. This was inconvenient when other roommates used the light late at night. It disrupted my sleep and lacked privacy.
