    The location of the hotel was good. The layout and comfort of the bed and room were good. The breakfast was OK. On the hot side they had scrambled eggs, potatoes, and ham slices. Waffle maker for you to make your own waffles. Pretty much equivalent or slightly less to hotels 1/2 its price. Good coffee maker in the room, and it has microwave and refrigerator. Wifi was easy to connect to and had decent speed. The bed and pillows were comfortable and we slept well.

    Don't let the exterior put you off. It looks like something out of an Alfred hitchcock movie but it was a cool place to stay. 10 minute walk to a few bars. 20 minutes to bus station. Rooms were large bed was comfy. You're never going to be here more than 2 nights because it's a nothing town in middle of nowhere so it's more than good enough for a 2 night stay.
