In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Shared bathroom in some rooms — The double room option has a shared bathroom, which may not suit all travelers, though guests found it clean and well-equipped.
  • Noise from the train station — Being next to the railway means you may hear trains, which some guests found charming but others might find disruptive.
  • Breakfast can be basic — While breakfast is included, a couple of reviews noted the bread was dry and individually packaged, and the selection is limited.
  • Air conditioning costs extra — Air conditioning is available only for an additional fee, which could add to your total cost in warmer months.

“The room was large and spotless, and the air conditioning was worth the small extra charge. The shared bathroom had everything needed, and the Wi-Fi was excellent. Breakfast was fine, though the bread was a bit dry and individually wrapped. Great value given the proximity to the station and center. No complaints at all.”
