Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I appreciated the staff for many reasons. I did have to wait for my room after getting off the cruise ship early and expected that. I worked and took a nap in the lobby. One very kind young man who was working in the dining/kitchen department approached me when I woke up to ask if I was ok. He told me he had been very worried about me but when he asked his manager if he should wake me up, he told him to let me sleep. He just wanted me to know he kept an eye on me to make sure I was ok. How sweet is that?! Later that night I was chilled and my room wasn't warm enough. The front desk staff brought me a folded double duvet and a space heater and I slept soundly and warmly all night. I feel they all went above and beyond. The proximetry to the train station is a bonus.

Nice fitness facilities but hotel a bit tired

Nice pool, gym and sauna. The reception and bar area is fine also. We stayed on the 4th floor. Dated and worn out a bit. Still had a nice stay as we made the most of it but price kind of does reflect. I would stay again for the facilities mainly.

A quick stopover to visit friends

The hotel was well located near the bus and train stations. A quick walk into city centre. The hotel was under renovation so difficult to comment on the amenities.
