Ryan

United States, January 2025

6.6/10

The hotel is conveniently located right across from the train station, making it easy to get around. However, the overall condition of the hotel is quite dated, with some cleanliness issues and uncomfortable bedding. The staff's limited English was a bit of a challenge, but they offered phone support for queries. If you value proximity to transportation, this hotel might work for you, but don't expect modern comforts.

Rooms

The rooms are spacious but in need of a refurbishment; the decor feels very dated, and the bed wasn't comfortable.

I had mixed feelings about my stay. The hotel's proximity to the train station is a huge plus, making it super convenient to get around. However, the room left a lot to be desired with its outdated decor, and cleanliness was an issue. Although the staff attempted to help, the limited English made it a bit challenging. Overall, it offers decent value for its location, but I can't say it was entirely comfortable or modern.

The hotel has a convenient location right by the train station, which is its best feature. The rooms are quite spacious and newly painted, but the overall decor feels very dated, and I wasn't impressed with the cleanliness. The Wi-Fi was free and performed well, but there were issues with noise and the view is not appealing. The staff's limited English could be inconvenient, but they had support available over the phone.

The hotel certainly has its pros and cons. It's located conveniently close to the train station, which is a plus, but the rooms are quite dated and need a lot of improvements. The service is adequate, though language may be a barrier. Overall, it feels like a place stuck in the past, but it's not terrible if you just need a quick place to stay.
