Excellent Stay near the Train Station
train station proximity wooden floors helpful staff
The proximity to the train station proved convenient for my day trips to neighboring cities. My Double or Twin Room featured wooden floors and a spacious bathroom. The hotel staff was notably helpful.
The noise from trams operating near the hotel was quite noticeable, even with the windows closed. Earplugs did help, but I think better sound isolation should be considered. It somewhat affected my sleep quality.

Breakfast featured good choices. The team member asked if I required beverages and provided prompt assistance! The morning meal takes place directly in the foyer area. it does not influence the experience. The service was excellent.

Mixed Feelings About My Stay
limited minibar insufficient soundproofing
I must admit I was pretty bummed about the mini-bar situation. I expected more than just water. Paying extra for other drinks felt a bit much. the tram noise was a constant bother. It really impacted my sleep, even with the windows closed.
