I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, thanks to its great location right across from the train station and close to many tasty restaurants and famous confectionery shops. The rooms were clean and fairly comfortable, though they are quite small by Western standards. The staff was very accommodating and friendly, which made our experience even better. However, dining options were a bit limited, and the breakfast selection could use some improvement.
