Amazing location and very welcoming staff. No issues with noise on the back side of the hotel and I loved the gorgeous large room with a glass canopy (complete with very functional shades). Only drawbacks were 1) the WiFi was rather weak and 2) the room could have used a bit more of a gay touch to the bathroom amenities (wink)

The room was clean and bed was comfy . Well stocked bar fridge . Very quiet except if you stay Saturday night as it’s on a street with night life but didn’t make sleeping difficult. We enjoyed our stay . It’s close to lots of great restaurants in walking distance and also 10 minute walk from train and tram station

Warm friendly staff. Not worth the money for a suite. You would expect complimentary water for the price. No chair with the vanity station which was very bizarre. Better off with one of the cozy rooms. But great location.

No real amenities. Noisy rooms. Two capsules of coffee in the room and when I asked reception if there was somewhere in the hotel to get a coffee, the response was to go to the train station. Overall, not ideal if you want a hotel experience.
