Great location!
Unfortunately, I had very disturbed sleep on both nights due to extremely loud corridor noise. Other guests were shouting and running up and down the hallway. On the first night, I was woken around 3am by very loud noise, and again from about 6am onwards. It made it difficult to rest properly and significantly impacted my overall stay.

Disappointing
I stayed at this hotel for three nights and unfortunately my experience was far below expectations. The main issue was the cleanliness of the bedding. The large duvet was only covered with a loose sheet and every time I moved, the sheet slipped off, exposing the duvet underneath. To my shock, the duvet had dried blood stains on it. I reported this to the reception, and they assured me it would be taken care of. However, the same problem happened again the following night: the sheet came off and the same blood stains were visible. It was clear that these stains had been there for quite some time. I complained a second time, but again nothing was done. I felt completely ignored and not taken seriously at all. Even during check-out, when I mentioned the issue once more, all I received was a quick “sorry,” with no sign that my concerns mattered or that the hygiene problem would be addressed. This is absolutely unacceptable. Blood stains are not only disgusting, but they can pose a health risk and the fact that staff did not treat the issue seriously makes it even worse. On top of that, the room view was very disappointing. The breakfast was also extremely disappointing. For 19€ I couldn’t bring myself to eat anything, as the options looked unhygienic and unappetizing. Cleanliness and customer care should be basic standards, especially for a 4 star hotel and unfortunately, both were lacking during my stay.
