“While its location outside the city center offers a quieter setting, reaching key attractions via public transport might present a slight challenge. The basic rooms may not suit all tastes, particularly given the potential for issues with plumbing. Overall, for travellers seeking a budget-friendly base, especially arriving late, alternative options with easier accessibility and assured reception might be more suitable.”
