central spot

useful kitchenette friendly staff central location

My room had a kitchenette with shelving. This was very useful. the staff was friendly, providing excellent service . the location is central, near bus stations, and within a short walk to the railway station. everything was straightforward and helpful.

The coffee machine spat out dirt, and the cups had dust. This indicated a lack of inspection before my arrival.
