Negative Reviews
Late fixed check‑in time (9pm)
A frequent issue is the hotel’s late check‑in policy (around 21:00); guests found this inconvenient for sightseeing or arriving earlier and had to plan around it.
Smoking allowed / cigarette smell
Several guests reported a noticeable tobacco smell in some rooms and noted that smoking rooms are available; advance notice helped some prepare, but the odor was bothersome to others.
Breakfast quality and limited options
Some reviewers found the breakfast bland or limited in variety (described by a few as fast‑food like or lacking sweet choices), so expectations may differ from the portion/quality provided.
Location is somewhat remote from the station
Multiple guests mentioned the hotel is a long walk (about 30 minutes) from the train station and that local transport can be sparse at night, which may be inconvenient.
Inconsistent mattress firmness and occasional dated decor
A few guests complained the mattress was too firm or that some rooms/decoration felt dated and not exactly like the photos; experiences vary by room.
