Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable, although the noisy air conditioning was a bit of a downside, and the absence of free drinking water was inconvenient. Having a bath in the room was a nice addition. The service was acceptable, with efficient housekeeping and laundry services, but the welcome drink was lacking. The location was excellent, close to everything in the city and near tram stops, making transportation convenient. The dining experience was satisfying, with more quality food available, especially various hot meal options. The facilities were adequate, catering to the basic needs of guests.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable with great bathrooms, but the air conditioning was too noisy. The location was convenient to a tram stop, but quite a walk to the central station. The hotel offered various hot meals in dining, but the lack of free drinking water was a downside.
