Wonderful Stay Near the Station

convenient location short walk well kept accomodation nice breakfast
The location was convenient. I found it was a short walk to the city center for dinner. The accommodation was indeed well kept. I also enjoyed a very nice breakfast with a relaxed atmosphere.
I noticed that the bed and pillows were a bit too firm for my preference.
