Great option for out of town travelers
Good hotel with a great location near the train station. The room was very comfortable although it didn't have air conditioning. The staff were all very friendly. Be prepared for city noise. Our room faced the street so we were expecting it. We loved the free transit passes (covered by the hotel city tax)

I was very disappointed with this hotel. It was recommended to me by a friend who stayed here last year so this is why we booked this place. The bed was so uncomfortable and the pillows so flat. We had the worst back and neck pain. Never again will I return to this place.

The hotel is a bit dated but it more than make up for it by a super friendly and staff. It is literally steps from the main train station as well as a hub for trams and buses. Walking distance to all old town attractions shopping and restaurants. Recommend this hotel if you don’t mind the worn facilities.

This is a wonderful hotel. We highly recommend it. The location is perfect—across the street from the train station, and near the national government buildings and the historic part of the city. The staff couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. The windows could be easily opened for fresh air or closed for completely blocking any occasional noise outside.
