The hotel is on a street with infinity bars, caffes, shops, restaurants and everything you need. The tram and bus stops are very close. Staff is very friendly. Breakfast has many options, I didn't see this many thing on a hotel breakfast before. The room is big, comfy, clean. Water pressure is strong and the water is really hot. Many hotels have water problems but not this one. We even got free drinks because we didn't ask for cleaning.
The bathtub and the bathroom floor is really slippery when it gets wet. Hard to get out. We didn't get a balcony with view, there was only houses in front of us but the room was super so we didn't care.

A small and cozy hotel within walking distance from the train station — about a 20–30 minute walk, with a few sights to check out along the way. It's located on a lively street full of shops and places to eat for every taste. The staff is very welcoming, everything was clean, and the room was cleaned daily. Tasty and varied breakfast options, plus a small fridge in the room.

The place is very nicley located, near the train station and right in the middle of the city. Despite the location, it was quiet. The building is a bit old but it is still clean and well-maintained. The breakfast is also good.

Excellent location and breakfast. Affordable compact room that worked out fine for two friends on a work trip.
Only one room key was possible so it made things a little tricky for two individuals sharing a twin room, though the front desk could help unlock the door as needed.

Very clean and cozy room. Good location
It was a very hot day and the room had only a small fan which was a bit noisy. An air conditioner would be more suitable.

Good breakfast. Clean, cozy room. Staff with best hospitality. Air conditioned if it's hot. Also with the good view from the room. Near the hotel, there's everything you need, even in national holidays.

it's a small kind of boutique hotel sized building. the staff were welcoming and helpful, usually I stay in premier inn-type hotels and this was more basic but a refreshing change and the breakfasts were delicious! Perfect for simply getting your head down after a long day exploring the city
