One of the best things and worst things about the hotel was its location. It was very close to the train station (about 2 doors down on the main street), so it was very convenient to get there after arriving and after a day trip. It was a few blocks to the old town, where most of the restaurants were. The neighborhood is a bit rough, though, although I did not feel endangered there even when arriving late at night after dinner. There was a buzzer on the door and no one could enter unless the desk clerk buzzed you in. They were very prompt about this; we never had to wait more than a few seconds. The hotel had an elevator (yeah!). The room was spacious by European standards. The shower was one of those corner affairs that are a bit difficult to use if you are large. The cleaning staff did their job, although curiously enough, they put in a new toilet paper roll every day even if not much had been used. The pillows could use some improvement--they were very hard. The towels were thin, but of a generous size. all in all, it was a pleasant stay.
