street noise limited breakfast variety

The staff was polite and helpful. The location is in the city center.

The noise from the street bothered me at night. Loud music played until late and street cleaning started early. Breakfast was not in the hotel. I had to walk to another place and found the buffet had little variety.

easy access friendly staff quick question addressing street noise early building work offsite breakfast

The location was definitely a HUGE plus. I had easy access to everything i needed. The staff members were very friendly and helpful! They addressed every question quickly. The room was clean AND a good size.

Unfortunately, the street was quite noisy at night. There WERE restaurants and bars nearby, so it was sometimes hard to sleep. I also noticed some building work taking place next door.. It started pretty early in the morning. I found it difficult to sleep after that hour. Breakfast was not located onsite..

Balanced stay in the city center

excellent location spacious room efficient staff short bed distant breakfast limited choice

The hotel's location was definitely a highlight. It was close to the main square. This made it easy to walk to many attractions. The room was also spacious and well furnished. I appreciated the efficient service provided by the staff.

The bed was a bit short for me. I am 187 cm tall, and I couldn't stretch my legs fully. Breakfast was served in a bar two blocks away. The walk was a bit inconvenient, and the food choices were limited.
