I had a pleasant stay overall at this hotel. The location is ideal, being close to the city center and attractions. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, but I did find the dining experience a bit lacking in options. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made my visit enjoyable. While the pricing is on the higher side, you do get good value for the amenities provided.

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. It’s located centrally, just a short walk from the train station and city center, making it very convenient. The rooms were clean and had a great setup, but I did get woken up a few times by noise from late arrivals. The service was top-notch; the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the dining experience could use some improvement, as the breakfast was good but not enough to offset my lost sleep due to noise. Overall, I felt like it was decent value for money considering its amenities.
