Nice staff, good location, walkable from the train station, trendy, lots of young adults. Grocery stores nearby.
I highly recommend this place. Amazing experience, got a free upgrade to the main hotel . The breakfast is affordable and a lot to choose from. Very friendly and helpful staff. I have no complains at all and I will gladly book them again.
Not great when you want to sleep because people are so loud when they come back late at night, slamming doors, banging and talking loudly at 3am. Didn't sleep much.
Bed sheets had dark stains, no towels, everything was worn down and the heater was running all night despite being turned completely off and it being 26 degrees outside.
Will NOT return.
