A bit of a smarten up needed, a refresh… but all in all generally very good.
Bathroom tired. Bathroom amenities, dated. A bit of interest in the lobby and entrance would add a good impression and welcome.

Good location. Fair value for money.
After the first night in the morning at 7 am we were woken by a very very loud (luckily false) alarm. Gladly it was over after 5 to 10 minutes; too late however to even think to go back to sleep again. The management did not consider it necessary to ever explain nor to apologize for the false alarm at any time.

A reception woman greeted us kindly, helped with the parking, explained the area and even helped get our luggage to the elevator. Amazing!
We didn’t care for the bar. We requested a limoncello and they couldn’t make it!

Staff was wonderful and very accommodating. Location was perfect, between old town and new town, and next to main train station. Close to everything. Indoor pool and steam room were great after a long day.

Overly expensive for what you get. Pictures look better than the actual hotel experience.

Perfect placement in the city ! Amazing stay and all the staff were so helpful and friendly
Hallway light stays on all night so the gap at the bottom of the door lets a lot of light in … I used a pillow to cover it up! :)
