The proximity to nature and a nearby small river provides a relaxing atmosphere.
For those with a vehicle, the location is quite convenient with easy access to the highway and city center, just a short drive away. Although public transportation can be limited, especially in the evenings, there is a bus stop roughly 800 meters from the hotel and the train station is a ten-minute walk for those who enjoy walking.

Despite the industrial setting, the location is described as central for day trips and guests have found it very well suited for visits to nearby thermal baths and banquet halls.
