Location is 30mins walk from the station and 45 from the castle and main commercial street. But the hotel has free bicycles you can borrow. Room was a little small but clean and enough for sleeping in. Do not leave windows open or mosquitos will come in.

“Good APA hotel!”
I really love APA hotels since they're so compact and affordable. This hotel is what you would expect from this chain's hotels. There were bus stops close by if you needed to go to the castle or centre and a few supermarkets, pharmacies and convenience stores were nearby too. Good restaurants are also around the area! Only nitpick I have is the bad air in the bathroom (possibly from mold), you need to have the ventilation on all times there otherwise the air is really heavy to breathe...
