The location was amazing, super close to the train station and a short walk into the city center! inga was such a friendly host, i really liked her. the espresso machine in the lobby was a real treat. I got excellent hot espresso drinks.
I found the parking instructions a little confusing. my room was on the top floor and not really built for tall people. i'm 6ft and my head was above the chandelier. I could not stand up straight to use the toilet!
