"Location, location, location: this hotel was in the heart of the city and close to everything. It was 2 minutes from the train station, and everything else was a 5-7 minute walk. The staff was amazing!!!! It was my daughter's birthday, and after mentioning it to them, they decorated our room with brownies, chocolate, and a card while we were out on a day excursion, making her day extra special. They really went above and beyond, and our triple room was huge."
