Location is close to the main bridge and has a local train cross bridge every few minutes. Plenty of eatery places and markets around. The room has its own shower and toilets. The kitchen is very small but providing free coffee and tea, no breakfest.

I recommend this place
The guy who assisted on arrival was really nice and helpful. It is a very quiet area. It's a place you can really go back after enjoying the city and rest. Very clean and tidy. But also very simple. It was strange for me that I had to make my own bed, but as I said everything was very clean. And in very good conditions. There are many good restaurants in the area for breakfast lunch and dinner. Close to the station and walking distance to the city centre.
