The staff provided the best customer service I have ever experienced. I found them very thoughtful and always willing to go the extra mile. They seemed like a happy team. I reminded me of they were well taken care of and genuinely enjoyed their work. I really appreciated the clean, spacious room and the nice bathroom it offered.

Convenient stay in the city!

central locationcomfortable bedeasy explorationconvenient stay
The hotel's central location made exploring the city VERY easy. I only stayed for two nights but found it convenient for seeing the main sights. The bed in my room was also REALLY comfortable, so I slept well.
The parking situation near the hotel is a little tricky. I ended up parking at a nearby garage, safe but added to the overall cost.
Service
9/10
The staff was nice and friendly. Check-in was smooth and quick, thanks to the keyless entry system via an app. This is convenient who tend to misplace physical keys and it's a VERY modern touch.
Dining

The coffee machine in the lobby made a cappuccino. The lobby offered a nice area to relax, and this was an added bonus for early mornings, before heading out to explore the area and enjoy other cafes.
Rooms

My room was clean and more spacious than I anticipated. The bathroom was practical, meeting my needs during the short stay. The provided amenities were adequate.

The bed had great comfort. The location has quick access to public transport. I found a nice bakery just around the corner (it's perfect for a morning treat!).
The walls are thin and I could hear the neighbor.
