Great Location, Compact Room

convenient locationhelpful stafftasty breakfasttram accessibility

The hotel is close to the train station, a short walk. A tram stops right outside the hotel, it made the city center very accessible. I found the staff friendly and helpful . Breakfast had various tasty options.

The room felt cramped for two, and there wasn't much space around three sides of the bed.

The room size was a challenge. Maneuvering around with luggage proved difficult (I even tripped once!). The placement of the shower in the room also felt awkward. I think there is a need for better spatial planning in the rooms.
