Terrible service and far too noisy to get any rest. I would not recommend this hotel. All night long you can hear people talking—it feels like there are no soundproof walls at all. You hear everything, which makes it impossible to sleep.

The only good thing about this hotel is location to central station and walking distance to attractions. Facilities are poor, moldy smells, don’t bother breakfast. Water pressure was extremely low to have showers - water pump had problems. I would not recommend this hotel unfortunately.
