It is so underrated and has a really good location. Would recommend. The guy at the front desk was so helpful and quick to help with any concerns that we had (not that there was much to be concerned about) had an amazing stay

Everything was fine. We did not experience any negativity. Breakfast could have been a little more varied.

A very nice city center hotel in a very good location. The decor is unusual but interesting. All the necessary facilities worked and it was clean. The beds are good. The roof terrace is worth seeing.

We booked two rooms a month in advance but when we got there, our rooms were not available. We were sent to a much cheaper hotel and didn’t get refunded. This hotel is so unprofessional and would not recommend it.
