“For travellers who appreciate a quieter base a little removed from the main tourist areas, this could be a good option. A location close to the railway station is convenient, and staff seem particularly helpful, willing to provide extra amenities. In my opinion, it's a practical and friendly choice, especially if local, rather than tourist-focused, experiences are preferred.”
