A bit disappointing and not worth the money.
"Pros: Close to the train station. Cons: My room had a terrible view. I requested a good view but unfortunately I did not get that. The hotel was quite expensive for what it had to offer. It doesn't even include a free breakfast. It cost an extra 15 Euro."
