The room was very well designed, offering everything I needed in a relatively compact space. The parking was easy. The breakfast was very good, however, staffing during the breakfast rush could have been better. Serving dishes were often empty, the coffee machine kept breaking, the plates and cutlery were notvery clean, and there didn't seem to be anyone bussing tables, so there was nowhere to sit, even though the tables weren't full. Overall, a very enjoyable stay minus the a rew recommended improvements to the breakfast service.

Good location, otherwise average

The room was very cold when I arrived, the AC set to 18 degrees Celsius. It took 30 minutes to get it up to my comfort zone (23 degrees Celsius). This hotel calls itself "eco friendly" while wasting electricity. No drinking water in the fridge. A cloud of dust came out of the curtain when I closed it and made me sneeze all night. Other than that it was ok, they let me park my car until 4 pm on checkout day without extra charge.

This property is better appointed and in better condition than most other hotels in its class. Rooms are clean and modern. The breakfast buffet offers fresh, hot food and good coffee, and is a very good option for quickly getting your day started. The location is about a 15-minute walk from shopping, eateries, and the river.
