Fantastic Breakfast

I really loved the breakfast at the hotel. There were plenty of choices, both cold and warm, which suited all our tastes. The room was spacious and offered a relaxed atmosphere to start our day off right.

Comfortable Stay

The room was exceptionally clean and spacious. I appreciated the fridge and safe in the room, which made my stay more comfortable and secure. The bed was really big and comfortable as well, allowing for a good night's sleep.

Relaxing Sauna

The sauna was a wonderful addition to my stay. It was well-maintained and provided a great way to unwind after a long day of exploring. I felt completely relaxed and rejuvenated after spending some quiet time there.

Convenient Parking

I found the parking facilities to be quite convenient. Even though there were limited spots available, I was able to secure a space for €23 per night. It was reassuring to have my car nearby as I enjoyed my stay.

7.4/10

I had a generally positive experience at the hotel, with clean and spacious rooms that had everything I needed for my business trip. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, but the dining options left something to be desired. I loved the location, being close to public transport and local attractions, which made it convenient for exploring the area. However, there were some maintenance issues in the rooms that could be improved.

Rooms

The rooms were modern, wide, and very clean, but the thermostat struggled a bit at night, only warming up by 1 °C despite being set at 23 °C. Also, one of the window locks was broken.

I had a decent stay at the hotel, which was conveniently located just a short walk from the city center; it was quiet yet accessible. The rooms were clean, but a bit small for my taste, and the service was friendly and responsive. On the downside, the dining experience didn't quite live up to expectations, with breakfast feeling rather ordinary. Overall, it's a good value for money, though I'll admit the smaller dining selection was disappointing.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which boasts a friendly staff and a very convenient location near several attractions and eateries. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, perfect for business travel, though I did notice a broken window lock that was left on the windowsill. The dining options were decent, although nothing too exciting. Overall, it was a good value for money, but the early morning light was a bit annoying due to the short curtains.

The hotel had a great location, very close to the train station and some lovely eateries. My room was spacious but a bit noisy at times, which made it less than ideal. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the dining experience left a little to be desired, and the Wi-Fi wasn't free, which was a bit disappointing for the price I paid.
