The room was very clean and nicely decorated, as were the common areas. Normal room size for europe, not huge but fine for two of us. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom all fine, shower good. Excellent location close to station and walkable to many sights. Staff friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent.
Just to warn anyone for whom it might be an issue - there is an “erotic” shop over the road with window displays. I’d already seen this on a previous review so was ready for it (travelling with 11yo) so thought I’d continue to pass on the info to future travellers. I know it won’t be an issue for probably 97% of us!

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.

Everything. The location, calm no noise, easy access to transportation Excellent breakfast of quality Easy check-up
We were a group of 4 seniors. We could have been offered a helping hand with our luggage especially that 2 us had to climb a flight of 6 steps to reach our room. And you had a luggage carrier.

This is a family run hotel which has good design everywhere you look, not just in the rooms. Combine that with very nice and helpful staff and the location just 200 m away from the central station. The hotel is an old but carefully renovated building, the rooms provide a cozy atmosphere. The breakfast buffet has lots of options and the staff constantly keeps an eye where fresh supplies are needed. The bar is well stocked and extends into the breakfast room - if you'd like to get some work done or simply want to be on your own you'll find a spot there. The hotel is situated in one of the areas with lots of dining options. Note that this was the former red-light district but there are just two or three outlets near the hotel which only open later in the evening. There was a technical issue in my room which could not be fixed easily. They assigned another room to me, left a note on my bed informing me about this and added a bar voucher as a compensation for the inconvenience. You can also get a bar voucher if you want to skip room cleaning for a day. I like that attitude of where you do not have to explicitly order the cleaning or even pay for it but they provide an incentive for considering that it might not be necessary every day.

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.
