Good location and helpful staff at the reception. Gym is so-so but good enough to grab a quick workout while traveling - decent enough range of dumbells for a light workout.

Small showers but refurbished rooms. Comfortable bed. Don’t book the theme room that the countryside. It’s a waste of money.
