The room was clean and the beds very comfortable, but it was the smallest room I have ever stayed in. The hotel was in walking distance to the bus, tram and great cages & restaurants.

The room was nice, clean, and comfortable. The location of the hotel itself is great; it's centrally located yet quiet. The room does get a bit cold even with the heat on, but I'd still recommend staying here.

Quite modern and well kept. Receptionists were very nice. Area was good, about 10-15 min walk to the centre so not like out the door but doable. Room was nothing fancy but it felt clean and bed was comfortable.
