“In my opinion, this spot strikes a good balance: it's a manageable walk to the city center, yet set back enough for a quieter stay. I found the well-equipped kitchen a definite plus, especially for longer stays. While not directly in the heart of things, the location feels more like a residential neighborhood than a tourist zone.”

quiet and well-equipped

modern decorquiet neighborhoodstaff absence
i loved the modern decor and the quiet neighborhood. a supermarket was nearby! the check-in process was simple. there was also plenty of parking available which was very convenient.
the lack of staff on site was a little weird. i had an empty vibe throughout the stay, it would have been nice to see someone around.
Service

the self check-in process was efficient, though some may prefer on-site staff. 24/7 online help was available. that is good because i did need it once to clarify parking instructions.
Location

the hotel is in a tranquil area slightly away from the city center. this location ensured peace and quiet while still having easy access to amenities. plus a supermarket is a short distance away.

awesome find!

I got a modern room. i appreciated the warm temperature and the excellent view of the waterfront and mountains from the third floor. The free street parking made it a great base for drivers, and it's a quick drive or bus to the city center. the equipped kitchenette is super handy!
there's no staff present at the hotel!

Convenient Stay Near Everything

well equipped kitchenefficient heatinggood shower pressure
I found the kitchen in my studio room very well equipped, enabling me to prepare my own breakfasts each morning. The heating was efficient. The shower had good pressure and was nice and hot. I enjoyed the view of the mountains.
I noticed no staff were on premise, interactions occurred remotely.

The staff communicated quickly after I called about access late at night, granting me rapid entry to my room. I appreciated this efficiency. Self check-in was smooth, requiring careful reading of instructions.
Location

This location is just outside the city center. Free parking is plentiful down the ramp behind the building near the school. I found its position to be a convenient distance from both the airport and the Golden Circle.

great Apartment With Amazing Views

super bedamazing showerpoor service
the room was compact but just what i needed for my trip. the bed was huge and super comfortable and the bathroom and shower was one of the best i've ever had in a hotel. blackout curtains were good. the shower was amazing, toiletries good quality.
gaining entry to the hotel was a nightmare and calling for assistance wasn't the best experience. when i asked for management to call me back as the assistant wasn't listening i was told 'you can write a letter' poor service!

The hotel lacks a service desk. It felt more like an Airbnb.

Functional Stay

functional kitchenworking ovenmicrowave ovenpoor google maps
The room included a functional kitchen. The cooktop took effort to ignite, but the oven and microwave worked well. The room was big enough for my needs. I liked facilities.
Locating this hotel at night proved hard. Google Maps provided a location that was not good. The building looked abandoned from the exterior and there was no staff on site.
