average stay
convenient locationimpolite staffpoor breakfast
The location was near the train station. It was convenient to access transportation.
The staff seemed uninterested and somewhat impolite. (Maybe it was just a bad day for them.) The included breakfast was more like a snack than a proper meal. I think having no breakfast would be better.
