The hotel is SUPER close to the train station and a quick walk to the night life. The beds were great and the rooms were very clean. The staff was helpful. I got a free upgrade for the room, THANKS to Hela. Cocktails were delicious!!!

The thermal suites were substandard and I felt paying extra for a small room with saunas was a waste.
