Very nice hotel in a very convenient part of town. Even for getting across town, there is a bus stop at the front of the hotel or less than a block walk there is a major tram station that can get you anywhere in the city. Great staff, and the rooms were quite nice.

Would go again

If you’re on a budget, this is great. Its super tiny but it had the comforts of coffee/tea and fridge in room which I find are essential. The location is 👌 great. I would definitely come back.

William, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The pitcher in the room and mug was cracked. Place is convenient for all transportation. Close to restaurants and train and bus stations.
Catherine, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Overall a few comments, they need to replace the mattress ASAP (at least the one in our room stains were too big to keep the mattress from my point of view..) the room needs to be vacuumed ours it wasn’t, if you are tall forget about the bathroom if you sit in the toilet your knees are inside the shower it is very tiny, they also need to offer more than one pillow, more lighting in the room. For the price it’s ok just some inconveniences that can be easily addressed. Location was really close to the train station and made moving around easy, and points for them having umbrellas available since it was raining.
