Guests consistently praised the hotel's excellent location, with many noting its proximity to train stations and other attractions. However, there were significant complaints regarding noise disturbances from the outside, making it difficult for some to sleep. Additionally, there were concerns about cleanliness, particularly in the bathrooms, which left some guests dissatisfied. Overall, while the location and value for money were highlights, the noise and cleanliness issues detracted from the experience.
