Nice hotel and a great location. Close to lots of sights and right by the train station. There was still some garbage in the room when we checked in, nothing major but worth mentioning. Breakfast was okay, but not worth the price paid. Only minor gripes would stay here again.

Could easy make better breakfast options for vegetarians or those of us that doesn't eat meat for breakfast by adding fresh fruit/berries for instance. The staff was super nice.

The staff were nice and it’s close to the train station but for the cost it’s not a brilliant hotel. I was in a room with a partition door to the next room and the lock wasn’t working properly so a very drunk woman opened it at 1am. Not the best experience.

Great location
It’s a great location, close to rail station and city center where you’ll find lots of shopping and dining options. The river is a block away with more options across the bridge. As many hotels are doing these days, you have to request room cleaning and/or new towels. Not a big deal but worth mentioning. Room was comfortable…a decent size with some storage. Staff were friendly and available. Breakfast is available for a price. Overall we’d stay here again
