I found the location convenient. The train station is a short walk. Trains provide a quick ride to the city center. Secure parking is available. The breakfast offered enough choices. My kids were happy. I found a KFC and a Krispy Kreme just outside the hotel gate. Tesco and Aldi stores are a short walk away.
