The location was convenient, very close to both the central train station and the lake. This made it easy to explore the area, with many good restaurants just a short walk away. I especially appreciated the friendly and helpful staff. They always greeted me with a smile.

The hotel is perfectly situated near the station. It is near the lake and the city centre. The breakfast accommodated my early start, with a lovely buffet.

Our room was on the first floor. It was at the end of the hallway. Outside our window was the street and 24-hour liquor stores. People were talking and chatting LOUDLY outside from 10pm until 7am.

The breakfast was very fine. It included bread, cheese, ham, yogurt, fruits, and many more items. the staff were lovely and helpful.

The neighborhood felt unsafe. there are escorts all around the area. they asked for 7 chf to store our luggage in their locker room for 2 hours. It should be free for this level of hotel.
