My room was on the 5th floor under the roof. The whole night, there was a humming sound that caused me to wake up several times. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The daily cleaning was below average, and they just replaced the towels daily.

Check in was easy. We were greeted by a very friendly and helpful staff memeber who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Many restaurants within walking distance. Room was clean but not entirely soundproof. Had a mini sauna in the room as well. The soap/shampoo needs improvement but beyond that the stay was quite pleasant.

We had a warm welcome from the front desk when we arrived, and everything was explained to us (sauna, breakfast, recommendations for restaurants in the area since we arrived late and were hungry), etc. My room (401) was huge, with a sofa, and big bed, and the sauna was hot! It was pretty quiet. There was a coffee bar with great coffee up until 9pm, and the breakfast was stellar. Really, I'd stay here again for sure...the value for money was great!
