“The location is a mixed bag: near the Jewish Quarter and a tram stop that whisks you to the Old Town, though the tram noise can be a concern. Rooms are spacious, clean, and well-equipped, even offering complimentary water. The breakfast buffet provides a decent start to the day, although the coffee could be improved.”
