train station hot coffee

The hotel is very close to the main train station. I walked there in under ten minutes. Breakfast was wonderful with many choices and hot coffee available.

The hotel did not include parking. I found street parking difficult.

kind receptionist modern room great location thin walls loud hvac adjustable heat

The receptionist was particularly wonderful , her kindness stood out. The room I had was modern and very nice. It seemed recently refurbished. The location is top , especially the easy access to everything. The staff members were friendly and polite , I appreciated that.

The walls seemed quite thin , I could hear a lot of noise. The heating system made a very loud noise all night , I found it disruptive. The room got very hot , and I couldn't adjust the temperature at all. There was only instant coffee available , I would have preferred a coffee maker.
