Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a prime location, close to the town center and within walking distance of the train station. The rooms are comfortable, but an unexpected visit from the maid late in the evening was a bit surprising. The staff is warm and welcoming, making the overall stay pleasant.
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were lovely and quiet, ensuring a good night's sleep, although being situated under a staircase or a corridor might disturb light sleepers. The location is convenient for shopping and nightlife, but could use some improvements in sound insulation. The service was exceptional, with extremely helpful and kind staff, particularly when it comes to accommodating little ones. The dining experience, although good, might require some adjustments in timing and offerings. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor inconveniences.
The hotel had comfortable and quiet rooms, despite some noise issues and building work going on. It looked really nice and very clean, but the lack of a lift might be challenging for older guests. The staff was friendly and accommodating, offering immediate apologies for any disruptions. The location, although not meeting expectations, was within easy walking distance of the railway station and the city center. The dining experience had welcoming staff but lacked some variety. Overall, a clean and cozy stay with minor inconveniences.
