The hotel's location was very convenient, right across from the train station, making it easy to access nearby attractions. The rooms were beautifully decorated for the wedding, but cleanliness could have been better with noticeable dust and a coffee stain. The service was excellent, with helpful and attentive staff who even went the extra mile to cook us a delicious meal. The dining experience offered good, freshly cooked meals, but one standout staff member made the experience especially enjoyable. Despite the leaking issue in the room, the overall stay was lovely and comfortable.
