convenient stay near the station

convenient usb slotsquiet roomquick radiatorsmall sink
The room had lamps. these lamps had convenient usb and usb-c slots for chargers built in. the radiator warmed the room quickly. i appreciate the hotel being right by the train station. The room was still quiet.
I found the sink very small. It is part of the toilet system. the towels did not match.

convenient stay

quick warmthquiet roomcharging slots
the radiator provided quick warmth in the room. despite being right by the train station, the room remained quiet, which i valued. lamps featured usb and usb-c slots, very useful for charging my devices.
there was no hot water available for two days, a minor inconvenience .
Dining

a breakfast option was unavailable with the room, but that did not bother me. the absence of breakfast was a very minor issue given the hotel's features. i easily found food elsewhere.
