You always know what you're going to get staying at an Ibis. The room was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was also in good order. General hot beverage station in the room and wardrobe space were adequate. The location is fairly good, just outside the train station, with a couple of amazing food trucks just outside for dinner options. You're a short walk or bus ride away from the main sights in the city.
