the room was large. it had facilities for heating food with a microwave. this was helpful because they don't serve lunch or dinner. the location is near to the train station (very convenient for travel). the free parking was a great bonus.
the hotel is closing down soon and looks a little run down. there are some cracks in public areas.

The staff was cute and helpful, they promptly addressed a couple of minor issues i had. i found the swimming pool opened quite early. This allowed for a refreshing start to the day. the provided breakfast included gluten free options. I was very satisfied. free parking on the hotel premises was a major benefit.
i noticed the hotel sign could use a thorough cleaning, it seemed a little neglected.
