low pressurenight noise
The cleanliness fell short of expectations the bathroom and shower were especially disappointing I noticed low water pressure making showers frustrating. Noise levels at night also posed a problem it made getting a good night's sleep hard. It was not a comfortable stay. I'm sad to report that our experience was not ideal.

Central Location, Excellent Service

comfortable bedsfree coffeeweak hairdryer
The location is fantastic with easy access to the railway station and nearby restaurants. The staff members were very helpful and friendly . The room had comfortable beds, air conditioning, and free WiFi, nice amenities. I also appreciated the free tea and coffee available throughout the day.
The shower had weak pressure, and the towels provided were only bath size, not bath sheets. I recommend that future guests bring their own stand-up mirror as there is not one in the room itself. the hairdryer was quite weak

mixed feelings about my stay

comfy bedtram noisebroken lights
the bed was comfy enough for a few nights of sleep, i guess.
i had trouble with the noise. a tram runs right outside, and it was loud at all hours. plus, some of the lights in the room just didn't work which was annoying, especially at that price.
