Pleasant
The location of this hotel is amazing and I cannot fault but the rest of the stay did not live up to my experience that I had had before. As I have stayed in this hotel 3 years ago and it really has fallen short.
I booked a standard double room and was given a really small room at the end of a corridor. I could not even fold out the luggage support fully as the bed was in the way. Also the toilet was so crampt you had to get into the bath to close the bathroom door without slamming it into yourself. The beds were also 2 singles and were regularly sliding apart. There was a hair in the egg breakfast on the first day and as a solo traveller I felt like the I was taken advantage of and a couple wouldnt have had the same situation. I really would not recommend this stay for the price, it really fell short.

Centrally located, clean comfortable small room
Elevators were often busy so had to use stairs. Rolling luggage on a floor is tricky given ups and downs

Disappointing
I liked the courtyard.
It’s too old, the rooms are too small, the shower wasn’t built right, so the water leaked out. There was no room for suitcases and clothes. The lunch room was too small and couldn’t accommodate all the guests.

Hotel very clean and modern Great breakfast Loved the bar area. Very relaxing after a day exploring Staff all very helpful
This is a red light district and people on street corners right outside hotel. Not sure what the hotel can do about it but we didn’t feel safe at night coming home . For that reason only, we wouldn’t return.

About 5 mins walk to/ from Central station which is quiet convenience. Approx. 10-15 mins by train from central station to airport.
Would appreciate a wider selection of option for breakfast.

Staff and location
Very difficult and awkward to get into and out of the tub/shower. Bottom of bathtub is several inches higher than bathroom floor. Hard to avoid spraying the bathroom with shower wand.

Only thing good about property is the location and good size rooms.
They have people on the street corners talking very loudly throughout the night . At first I thought it was from a bar then realized, after looking out of the window they looked like prostitutes.

the hotel is cool in a great location, the personell very friendly, but the breakfast was very poor. It's also really disappointing in 2026 not to have a proper coffee machine in the breakfast area.
Breakfast, coffee.
