Good hotel in a perfect position to visit the town. Great breakfast. As an area for improvement a similar hotel should have a temporary parking lot in front of the reception to allow the check-in/check-out management.

Great position across the road from the train station. I had read a few reviews about rude staff. This could not be further from our experience. Everybody was super friendly and especially Gabriel at the front desk who went over and above with assistance during our stay.

Good, clean hotel across the street from train station. Helpful and friendly staff, good breakfast. Was a little hassle to park in front and unload luggage from the car- but that not the hotel fault. We should've come by train.
