“What struck me most was the accessibility, positioned conveniently near both the train station and the city center. I appreciated the feeling of warmth and the remarkably clean rooms, it really did feel like a home away from home. Breakfast was a highlight, beautifully prepared, though I confess, I missed the black pudding.”
