The hotel is a perfect choice for a village stay with its central location and proximity to the station. The rooms provide a cozy bed and include breakfast, adding to the comfort of the stay. While the service, particularly housekeeping, was top-notch, the marinated fish at dining was a highlight. The surroundings may lack some excitement for those seeking vibrant locations, but for a peaceful retreat, it's just right.
