The staff was friendly and helpful . The location was convenient, with a tram stop right outside. I found a supermarket across the street , made getting essentials very easy. The room itself was clean and cozy, which i appreciated after long days.

The walls seemed thin, and I heard noise from other rooms and the hallway. A night stand in the room would have been a plus.
