The hotel's location is perfect, right opposite the train station and close to the vibrant nightlife, although it can get a bit noisy. The rooms are spacious, and the shower in the large bathroom is a real highlight. The adjacent bar with a big telly adds to the entertainment factor, but the price could be slightly better.

The hotel has spacious rooms with a big telly, a really nice shower, and a large bathroom. The adjacent bar adds a nice touch to the stay. The service is top-notch, making you feel truly welcomed. Despite the vibrant nightlife nearby that can get noisy, the convenience of being right opposite the train station is a big plus. The dining experience, although offering a snack menu, could have more variety. The facilities are well-maintained and add value to the overall stay.

Wow! This hotel is truly in the heart of the action, just steps away from the bustling nightlife that felt like a movie scene. The rooms are spacious and modern, with a big telly to enjoy, a really nice shower, and a large bathroom. The service was top-notch, making me feel right at home. However, the dining experience, though offering delicious pasta, had its limits. Despite this, the facilities were superb, making my stay even more enjoyable.
