spacious room gluten-free bread convenient location
The double or twin room was spacious. it included two separate sinks, a definite plus, and the bathroom was sparkling clean. The breakfast selection had gluten-free bread available, a thoughtful addition that i appreciated. the hotel's proximity to the train station made my early departure stress-free! though the elevators were a bit slow at peak times.
The room lacked a kettle. This was a slight inconvenience for making tea.
