Clean, comfortable and friendly
Pros:

The person on the reception desk was very warm and welcoming. The room was clean and comfortable, and toiletries were also provided. We were able to leave our bags after checking out with no problems, which made a huge difference as our train wasn't until 630pm

Cons:

Nothing!

Struttura accogliente, posizione ottima!
Pros:

Mi sembrava di stare in una stanza tipica. Si trova esattamente tra due stazioni, 4 minuti ciascuna, molto comoda per gli spostamenti. Personale tanto disponibile!

Cons:

Pochissime finestre, sia in camera che negli spazi comuni, quindi l’ambiente purtroppo sapeva da chiuso.

Excellent stop for an over night stay
Pros:

A nice hotel on a quiet side street off a main road not far from a train station. The staff was very kind and explained everything at check in. The room was small but perfect for an overnight. The futon was very comfortable! Appreciated all of the toiletries as well. Worth the price for a very nice experience.

Hotel with cockroaches
Pros:

Location was ok and the staff was friendly and fair enough to refund us our money.

Cons:

Our room had cockroaches!!! They were huge and my wife and I had to leave in the middle of the night and look for another hotel. Horrifying!!! The hotel is very old and has some weird smell.

It was good
Pros:

This room that we got was excellent, it had a bed in a separate room and when you enter you go to the living room which is great, a very good placement of rooms. It was nice and seemed clean.

Cons:

We found a giant cockroach in the morning next to the bed.
