Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel's location to be really convenient with easy access to public transportation, but the lack of dining options nearby was a downside. The rooms were clean and spacious, offering good comfort, although the check-in experience was a bit of a hassle. The friendliness of the staff added a nice touch to the stay.
The hotel room was beautiful and comfortable, with a modern style, kitchenette, and a quiet atmosphere that helped me sleep well. It was spacious, well-equipped with lots of towels, and offered a good breakfast. The 18 euros parking fee for a day at the hotel parking or the nearby garage 400 meters away was convenient.
The hotel is clean and comfortable with good breakfast options and convenient parking facilities for 18 euros per day. The rooms are spacious, with nice bathroom facilities and a refrigerator. However, the service left something to be desired with unimpressive interactions and reluctance to assist. The location is in a quiet area, about a 5-minute walk from a bus stop and 20 minutes from the city center. The dining experience is quite limited, and the facilities are well-maintained.
I stayed on the top floor of the hotel which had spacious rooms with plenty of towels provided. The breakfast was good, but the parking was a bit pricey at 18 euros for a day at the hotel parking or a garage 400m away. The only downside was the lack of internet in the rooms and the noise from the street when the window was open.
I have mixed feelings about this hotel. While the rooms definitely need a touch of paint and exude an 'old' smell, they are clean, with fresh towels, and have reliable AC. Unfortunately, my room wasn't ready upon arrival, and I was asked to wait.
Staying on the ground floor in the corner, I found the room to be clean and quiet, though the cleaners' closet nearby was a bit inconvenient. The dining room's appearance was questionable, and check-in was delayed until 2 P.M. without prior notice, leading to some unhappy guests in the lobby.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very clean but felt a bit cramped with small windows. The service was exceptional, with staff going out of their way to assist guests. The location was decent, a bit far from the city center but in a quiet area. The dining options were limited, but the hotel facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel may need some updating, but it's clean and offers friendly service. The location is convenient with nearby transportation options, though not directly in the city center. The dining selection is average, and the facilities could benefit from some improvements.
The hotel is located in a nice, quiet area, about a 5-minute walk from a bus stop and 20 minutes from the city center. The rooms are quite comfortable but were not warm enough upon arrival, causing inconvenience to guests. The service provided was excellent overall, with helpful staff willing to assist guests with various needs. The dining experience was average, with limited choices and some frozen bakery items. The location, though not the best in terms of safety, offers easy access to public transport, making it convenient for exploring the city.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were cozy and clean, with a modern style that made me feel right at home.

The hotel's location was quaint and in a nice, quiet area, about a 5-minute walk from a bus stop but complicated or expensive if choosing the hotel's parking space. The rooms were spacious with good bathroom facilities but had a damp and moldy smell, not matching the website pictures. The service was exceptional, from lending an umbrella during rain to helping park a car in a nearby garage, arranging airport taxis, and packing fresh croissants. The dining offered continental fare with room for more variety. Overall, a good value for money stay.
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were spacious and had plenty of towels, but I noticed some dry wine spots on the table that weren't very pleasant. The breakfast was good, and parking at the hotel was convenient for 18 euros a day, or there was a garage located 400 meters away if the hotel parking was full.
The hotel is conveniently located in a nice, quiet area, close to public transportation but lacks good dining options nearby. The rooms, despite being small and needing an update, were mostly clean except for an oversight with forgotten underwear. The service was helpful overall, with a thoughtful gesture of free parking for a motorcycle but some missed requests. The dining options, though limited, had a decent selection for breakfast. The hotel's facilities are satisfactory and could benefit from some improvements.
The hotel had small rooms that felt like a cellar, but they were equipped with air conditioning. The pictures on the website didn't match the actual room. The staff were friendly and helpful, but there were some inconsistencies in service. The location was in a nice area, but not very safe. The dining experience was average with continental fare. The facilities were basic but functional.
