The hotel was in a pretty good location, close to the waterfront and the main train station. The rooms were a bit small and somewhat dark, but they were clean and we received a warm welcome on arrival. The service was outstanding, with the staff being very helpful and providing excellent city sightseeing advice. The dining was decent, but the early morning takeaway was a bit pricey. Overall, a good value for the money.

The hotel is like a typical city center hotel with small rooms located on the top floor. The furniture and fittings are similar to those in a prison cell, and there is a shocking smell of drains in the bathroom. However, the service provided by the exceptional staff is outstanding, ensuring guests feel welcome and comfortable. The location is convenient, close to the main train station in the city center. The dining experience was quite good despite the small room, and the facilities were decent.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the room was generously sized and beautifully appointed with quality linen, it was very noisy due to air regulators outside in the garden, different from what I had expected from the photos. The service was generally good with helpful staff, but there were a few small oversights like not explaining the lack of air conditioning and delayed soap replacement. The location was convenient, especially for public transportation, but it lacked some key amenities like a proper dining option. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.

The hotel offers a mixed experience with clean and relatively spacious rooms, but falls short compared to the photos shown.

The hotel had beautifully decorated and very clean rooms with a superb bathroom featuring two rainfall showers, a bath, and two sinks. The rooms had character but were tiny, especially the toilet. Despite the size, the room was perfect with a comfy bed, fabulous shower, and a quaint balcony that we still enjoyed despite the chilly weather.
