Fantastic Location, Great Breakfast!

central location nice restaurants breakfast selection

The hotel is super close to the main square (it's just a 10-minute walk). There are many really nice restaurants nearby, only a few minutes away. I liked that it's also very close to the train and bus station. The breakfast had lots of choices, including cooked eggs, sausage and bacon.

The pillows were not the best.

Basic Stay with Some Issues

leaky shower uncomfortable mattress

The room felt quite dated, it needs some serious updates. The shower was particularly annoying because it leaked all over the floor. I also found the bed uncomfortable. The mattress felt old and worn out (it was hard to get a good night's sleep). These issues detracted from the experience.

i was a bit disappointed with a couple of things. the internet was completely down for a week, with no backup. also, i thought the reception staff could have been more engaging. they weren't rude, but they didn't seem very interested in chatting or asking about my day.

The breakfast buffet included many options. i noticed a lady constantly replenished the food, so everything was fresh. the hotel location was convenient. It was close to both the train station and the main square.

the room only had one bedside lamp, and the contact was damaged.

The location proved AMAZING, close to the shopping centre. The staff were great, providing helpful recommendations. I definitely recommend it.

The tv was small, a slight inconvenience. The room only had a minimal quilt. I found this a little uncomfortable.
