My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great with easy access to public transport, but the small rooms facing the street and lack of a thermostat made it less comfortable. The service was outstanding, especially from the reception desk trainee who went above and beyond to provide information. The dining experience was enjoyable with a decent selection. Overall, a decent value for the price.

The hotel felt more like a train station hotel, but it was a really nice and peaceful place to rest up and work on my laptop, especially being on the garden side. It's conveniently near the tram and bus stop. The only drawback is that the rooms aren't very spacious.

Staying in the family room, we experienced the pros of a huge space but noticed the downside of a tiny room. The cleanliness was top-notch for an old room but felt somewhat small.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, equipped with a coffee machine and complimentary water, making my overnight needs a breeze. The location was ideal, with easy access to the city center and tram station right outside the door. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff, especially George, who went above and beyond to assist me. Although the dining experience was good, offering a variety of choices and delicious coffee, there could have been more options available. Overall, a great value for the money.

My stay at the hotel was quite delightful. The rooms, although a bit small, were clean and quiet. The beds were comfy, and there was a good selection of TV channels. The breakfast had a nice variety, which made up for the room size. The location was excellent, right by the tram line, offering easy access to the city center. The service was top-notch, with the staff being friendly, helpful, and multilingual. However, the dining options were somewhat limited. Overall, a great value for the money.
