the hotel's location allowed convenient access to various attractions. trams stopped right at the front door. the breakfast offered a good array of options, ensuring a satisfying start to each day.
The room felt quite small, which impacted my overall comfort. noise from the trams outside was constant and made sleep difficult. i found the air conditioning to be very loud and drafty. It was not possible to switch it off.

The location was great. I could easily access public transit. The breakfast had fresh fruit and a good variety of breads. The room was warm and the staff was helpful.
The bathroom had dirt and scale! The toilet flush was broken. The wardrobe door was also broken. I think it could have used an extra rack for my bag.
