Really good Stay Near the Station

great rangegood coffeeuseful kitchengood facilities

I found the location excellent near both bus and rail links. The breakfast buffet included a really good range of options and pretty good coffee. I found the shared kitchen useful. All the shared facilities, including the bar and terrace garden, seemed good.

The ventilation in my room could not be regulated and continued throughout the night making sleep difficult.

Dining

The breakfast included fruit juices, coffee, cereals, fresh fruit salad, and breads. There were cream cheese, hummus, soya protein, hams, cheeses, eggs, and potatoes. Staff refilled everything constantly ensuring a steady supply.

Location

The facility is approximately a ten-minute walk from the railway station. A tram stop is also within walking distance. This makes access to the city very straightforward.

main train stationflooded bathroomlow standard

The hotel location was fine. It was close to the main train station.

I was quite disappointed with the bathroom, because every time i took a shower, it flooded. the room felt cold, and i didn't feel at home, not relaxing at all! also, the staff asked if i wanted the room cleaned one night, but the following day, it wasn't touched. This shows low standards for hotels in my opinion.
