Breakfast is minimalistic, but functional. Rooms are newly renovated and very clean. Location is convenient. One condition (it is listed, fairly) to keep in mind that all arrivals after 8pm and especially after 10pm must be prearranged in advance. Keep this in mind. Staff is friendly, WiFi worked well
