Centrally located hotel
convenient location reliable wifi downtown view nearby store
The hotel connected to a mall included a food court nearby. It makes quick meals very accessible. Wifi was reliable. I had a downtown view from my room. A convenience store sat around the corner and sold snacks.
I experienced no cleaning in four days, this included no fresh towels or toilet paper provided. The trash was never emptied, unexpected for this category of hotel.
Service
9/10
Reception staff greeted me in a cute manner. They were also very helpful with directions. I found their service to be quite efficient. I needed guidance and they assisted.
Location
10/10
The hotel is in the heart of everything. It is a short walk to the medieval town. The opera house is also close. A main shopping center sits a one minute walk away.
Rooms

My renovated room was spacious enough for me. The bed provided a comfortable sleeping experience. Everything in the room was clean. I found the temperature easy to regulate.
