The location was good. Near the old town, some tram stations and a bus station I didn’t use. It’s situated above a shopping mall with a food court which was a nice touch. The breakfast was good and there’s plenty of seating. The staff is also very helpful for tourists.

The hotel is located just across the street from the Old Town/city center. Also, it is attached to a small mall with a large food court, pharmacy, clinic, and convenience store. The rooms are smaller and older than some of the other hotels but still maintained and clean.I did enjoy the great unobstructed view from my room. Ask for a room facing the old city and a view of the Baltic Sea/Gulf of Finland.
