Good location, weird check-in
Pros:

Is close enough to the central station
Rooms have everything you need for a short stay, bed comfortable, no noise
There is wifi as well

Cons:

The reception works weirdly.
We arrived around 11 am and it was closed, no one in the reception. In the door there is a paper with contact numbers and we had to call them. At the end it was the cleaning lady who opened the door for us.
We could leave our luggage but there was no one
Reception opens at 13h00 it seems

Kényelmetlen a használat.
Pros:

A pályaudvar közelében, jó helyen van a szállás.

Cons:

Közös WC egy emelettel feljebb, közös zuhany egy emelettel lejjebb, nincs mosdókagyló a szobában. Direkt a szoba mellett van a recepció, mosogatóval és vízforralóval felszerelve, de ezt tilos használni. Személyzet nincs. A sötétítő függöny részben le van szakadva.
