convenient stay near the station !

nice selection friendly staff soundproofing system l u g g a g e a s s i s t a n c e
I loved the breakfast , it offered a really nice selection , and the cappuccino was excellent. the staff was very friendly and helpful throughout my stay , especially at the reception. the hotel's soundproofing system impressed me. I barely heard any train noise even though my room was near the tracks.
during my stay, the hotel lacked luggage assistance, i think the hotel should add luggage assistance. it would improve the arrival experience with heavy bags.
