An OK hotel for a quick stay. Avoid if you have back issues like me though. The mattresses were way too soft and sunken in - when I asked if there were any firmer options I was informed that all the mattresses in the hotel are the same. Also a bit of a weird smell going on in the bathroom, though it looked relatively clean.
Quite modern and well kept. Receptionists were very nice. Area was good, about 10-15 min walk to the centre so not like out the door but doable. Room was nothing fancy but it felt clean and bed was comfortable.
Beautiful, clean and close to great dining options

The room was modern, clean and comfortable. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Our only disappointments were that we had no table or chairs, also people were talking outside our room at night and garbage pick up at 4am woke us up. I would recommend staying here, it’s within walking distance to the city centre. Very good stay.
The room was nice, clean, and comfortable. The location of the hotel itself is great; it's centrally located yet quiet. The room does get a bit cold even with the heat on, but I'd still recommend staying here.
