It was amazing. The rooms were so comfortable and the host gave us treats & drinks. We went to a really nice restaurant that was also very very nice. We very much enjoyed ourselves.

The building itself is awesome- historical - you can feel the history in the floor boards. That part was amazing! Unfortunately, we didn’t know that 3 rooms share one bathroom. We also didn’t know that the food isn’t checked all that often, so there was some stuff that was moldy for breakfast. Also, we booked two rooms for 7 people, and our one room was rented to someone else, so we were forced to cram 7 people into one room with 2 beds for 2 nights. The proprietor was kind enough in allowing us to use his laundry and we ended up getting our money back for the 2nd room, but the combination of issues sullied the experience for us. Overall, if the proprietor had more help to keep up with the place, it would be great. He was more than kind in giving us a private tour of the attached museum from the closed train station, and that was a highlight. But between the food, the issue with overbooking and the fact that some of the surfaces were not clean, we ended up with a middling/negative experience. In the end, I think just knowing what to expect would have been helpful for us.

False advertising on room
This train station bandb is not as advertised no tv and windows very difficult to close and open food and condiments not changed as often as they should be .pets were welcome I think but due to the closeness of rooms not a great idea as barking very loud in this space . The beds were the best part of this place very comfortable and bedding was fresh and clean. If you just need a place to sleep it just ok.
