I had a comfortable stay at this hotel, with newly refurbished rooms that had a fantastic super king size bed. The location was convenient, just a short stroll from the train station, which made it easy to access the town. However, I did have to wait until 3 pm to check in, and the dining experience could use a bit more variety at breakfast.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The newly refurbished rooms are really modern and comfortable, with a super king size bed that felt amazing. Service was okay, though I did find it a bit frustrating that I couldn't check in until 3 PM. The dining was decent, especially the Hungarian beef stew, but it could use more variety for breakfast. Overall, it's a good value for money, but there were a few hiccups.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were newly refurbished and super comfortable, making my nights restful. While the service was initially a bit slow with the check-in time being later than I expected, the staff did eventually come around and offered drinks while I waited. The location was quite convenient for travel, being close to the train station. However, the dining options left a little to be desired. Overall, it was a good stay, just a couple of things that could be improved.
