a decent hotel WITH MINOR ISSUES
breakfast options central location noisy street creaky bed
The breakfast offered many options and flavors. The location allows one to reach every corner of the city on foot. the STAFF was friendly! and very helpful.
The bed creaked terribly. It was quite noisy even overnight, as the windows face directly onto the street where the trams run.

Acceptable Location. Notable Carpet Condition
The hotel's location proved suitable for city exploration.
The carpets throughout the hotel were noticeably unclean. This detracted from the overall experience, and I hope that this can be resolved soon. They require replacement, and I expect better.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues
practical location top floor nice view hallway carpets small room luggage space
The location was really practical for visiting attractions in the city center , also accessing public transport was easy. I was fortunate to get a room on the top floor with a nice view , I appreciated that. Breakfast had many options and was great.
The hallway carpets need changing desperately , they looked very bad. My room was small and not as clean as I expected. The room lacked space for luggage.
