Hotel is 15 min from central station by bus: frequent connections, overall handy.
it's a 4*hotel but the building and the furniture are quite old.
all the facilities you expect from a 4* though (kettle, tv, comfortable beds, large bathroom with bath, safe, wardrobe)
if you have a car, the hotel has a car park underneath for about 12euro a day: safe and handy.
it's not a turistic area at all, the opposit. probably not the best but during the day it's quite lively.
there is a shopping centre with some shops, bars, market nearby.

Room was pleasant, and large. parking was reasonably priced. had a fantastic rate with easytobook.com. Staff professionalism was inconsistent. room had burnt-out light bulbs, handles missing from closet, etc. hotel parking was very unclear and hard to find without instruction. truly ugly building from the outside, we were nervous about what our room would look like, but it was fine. elevator to parking was broken on our check-out. etc., etc. i'd stay somewhere else next time.Bland
