The room was really nice. The only complaint was there was no airflow in the rooms. No air-conditioner that I could find making the space a little stuffy.

Comfortable and Quiet

The hotel is about 2km South of the city, but easily reachable by the very frequent trams. Room was clean and in great condition. Quiet with very comfortable beds. Our room also had a well equipped small kitchen with everything you need, including a dishwasher. Front desk staff were friendly. Restaurant on the property offered excellent Italian food. We would definitely stay there again.

The gentleman in reception at check-in was very friendly. Room was clean and beds were comfy. For a Saturday night, the hotel was quiet so that was great. Secure on site parking cost was also reasonable. Was better than what we were expecting and would definitely recommend and stay again.
