This hotel is close to the tram stop which was very convenient. The hotel looks newer and that is reflected in the rooms. The room was large for three people. Everything looked clean. Breakfast was extensive! There was coconut yogurt and almond milk for those that don't eat dairy.

The hotel is ok, staff friendy and good options inside the hotel. However, it is not so close to the old town, it takes more than 15 minutes by car. Our room fridge was not working, we informed the reception, yet it was never fixed. The rooms are ok, but not sound proof. We heard everything from the corridor, and it was pretty noisy.

Okay for one night

Service was good, location was good, breakfast was good and secure parking in the garage. The rooms could need an upgrade, but it’s okay for one night. The pool is a lot smaller in real life than it looks like in the picture.
