The bed was comfortable, the laundry facilities were convenient and worked well, and the staff were very friendly. The room was in good condition, and the shower was hot with good pressure. Overall no complaints. The hotel was located in a quiet area - I had a room right above the main road on a Saturday night and had no issues with noise. It was very close to the main rail and bus station, easily walkable with a suitcase. The only thing I would warn is that there weren't any restaurants or bars nearby open past 9pm, so if you're looking for something central to night life this isn't it.
