Liked: Cleanliness
Facilities were good. Stay spoilt by someone trying to smash the front door in at 4am in the morning. Maybe we were unlucky, but not a nice experience. Wouldn’t risk staying again.

Good hotel in walking distance (15 min) to city center. The website is a bit unclear but there is no reception so you call when you are at the hotel and they remotely let you in. Which works fine. The room is fine although you do hear the neighbors answering be you clearly. But all in all a good choice and decent price/quality.
