If you are looking for a place next to the train station, this would be perfect. Not big but has all the commodities you need and decent shower with good pressure. Bed are good. Staff really nice they waited for us almost 2 hours after check-in finish ( our train had issues and we were delayed arriving) we kept them informed and they were awesome.

Fantastic lodgings

We chose this motel for its proximity to the train station, so it's slightly far from the main shopping/dining area. However, the room is fantastic with full amenities. The staff was very nice as well, giving us a room that was ready even though we arrived 4 hours before check-in time.

The Golden Star hotel is it within walking distance of the train station. It's located in a commercial area, but we were extremely happy with the hotel itself. It was very clean and comfortable. The manager was extremely proactive and took care of the issues we were having which were very minor. I highly recommend this hotel.
