on-site breakfast friendly staff insensitive lights few restaurants

The hotel provided breakfast on site I appreciated that. My room was at the back of the hotel this meant I could not hear train station noise. The staff was helpful and very friendly. I found the room perfect as a solo traveller and the bathroom was very clean.

The lobby of my floor had sensor lights however the lights were not sensitive. I needed to open my room in complete darkness. There were few restaurants nearby.
