The hotel rooms were good sized and clean, with fresh towels and bed sheets; however, the noise level outside was unbearable and the seating area was extremely small, leading to potential queues. The service was friendly and helpful, with adequate breakfast options. The location was very convenient for city center access but faced noise from a busy street. The dining experience offered a variety of food but had limitations for simultaneous seating. The facilities were well-kept and enjoyable.

My stay was pleasant overall. The rooms were smaller than expected, but they had enough storage space for our 4-night stay. Unfortunately, there was an unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom drains. The kitchen staff were consistently courteous, although the door was closed one night, causing a brief inconvenience. The hotel is centrally located with nearby amenities, making it a convenient choice for a short stay. The dining options were satisfactory but limited. The facilities were basic, with a minimal breakfast setup.

I found this hotel to be a mixed bag. The rooms, although clean and comfortable, felt a bit outdated and cramped. However, booking at short notice for under €100 was a great deal. The service was a bit hit and miss; while the staff seemed the best part of the experience, there were some unfriendly encounters, like being asked for an extra fee to store luggage. The central location was both a blessing and a curse, perfect for exploring the city center but noisy during weekend nights. The dining options were basic but sufficient, and the breakfast, although overpriced, saved me from an early morning hunger. Overall, a decent stay if you can overlook some shortcomings.
