A Charming Stay!

fruit trayhelpful suggestionsstreet noise
The staff offered us a honeymoon treat with a fruit tray and Prosecco. They provided useful suggestions for walking around town. The room was comfortable, and I especially appreciated this thoughtful touch.
The room overlooked a busy street, and noise from trams running every few minutes could be heard! I recommend bringing earplugs for a quieter night.
Dining

Breakfast included scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, roasted potatoes, and cornflakes. There were also cheeses, cucumbers, tomatoes, and a selection of both cold and hot beverages available each day, ensuring a satisfying start.

central locationfriendly staffstreet noiselimited options
The hotel is close to the main railway station. The location made it easy to access transportation. The staff was also friendly and helpful. I appreciated their assistance with directions.
The room faced the street, and noise was noticeable at night. It disrupted my sleep. the breakfast buffet did not include many gluten-free options. This limited my choices considerably.
