“For a budget-conscious stay, the spacious, clean rooms impress, and the strong shower pressure is a welcome touch. While some noise from neighboring rooms and the nearby road is noticeable, the friendly staff and convenient location near local attractions are definite pluses. I found the breakfast area a bit underwhelming, but the waffle machine and Nutella somewhat made up for it.”
