Location good close to train station A place to store luggage

Location, cleanliness, friendly staff As a solo traveller I don't like my house key left outside in a box. I prefer a staff person on site.

Location, staff friendly, breakfast good, Use of kitchen to make a tea I arrived about 8/9 pm after a long day of travel My key wasn't in the outside box Someone had taken mine, apparently because someone took his. I was alone, in the cold, locked outside. It was very upsetting. After contacting the owner, security came to ensure everything was fine, which it was, however there needs to be a better more secure system. For anyone, let alone solo travellers arriving late at night, there needs to be another arrangement.

Fantastic value for the money. The room was very clean. Of course, the furniture is basic but still comfortable. The breakfast was even better than I had anticipated - lots of options (hot beverages, different breaks, cold cuts, cheese, a few veggies, eggs, porridge, jams, etc.) Location was great too - just a short walk from the trainstation and shuttle bus, as well as a 20min walk into the city center. Large grocery store was close by as well! I’d definitely stay there again! Just want to mention, that the reception (and therefore the kitchen area) was only opened until sometime in the afternoon each day, so a little bit shorter than what is written online. Personally I didn’t care as I didn’t need to use the kitchen, but it could be a downside to some peole.

The pillow sheet has dry blood stain on it and the WiFi connection is bad.

Clean, friendly staff, location Breakfast great Key outside in mailbox after hours Someone took mine, contacted property owners, security came. Everything was fine but it was unnerving for me as a solo female traveller

Nice place. Looks little old style but clean and comfortable. good Breakfast. walkable distance to super markets. and directly behind train station. Common Kitchen is available if we want to cook our own food. nice view from balcony atleast in winter.

Strategically located; very close to the railway station and walking distance from the city Centre…relatively reasonably priced and good value for money; friendly staff; kitchen facility for cooking Breakfast has potential for being more vegan friendly…rest, all was good! Also, It would be super helpful if the shortest route from the railway station to the guesthouse can be marked and shared in the description. We took an extremely long route to reach the guesthouse initially.

Perfectly located right behind the train station. There’s even a short cut path a 4 minute walk from the Guesthouse to the train station, preventing one from a 3 minute €15 taxi ride! All tours that you book pick up from Guesthouse. Breakfast is served, and the kitchen is open to all. The owner/staff are very friendly and accommodating. Stayed for three nights.

I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. Its location is excellent, with public transport just a short walk away, making it easy to get around the city. The room and bathroom were spotless, well maintained, and very comfortable throughout my stay.
