The room was a nice size and brand-new and come with an adjoining terrace, a safe box, and a TV set. The continental breakfast was complementary with ham, pastries, coffee drinks. The hotel was in a central location close to everything that you would want to see. Everything was very comfortable, even so a few employees were very rude.

Appreciated the twin/double room, it was new-fashioned the time we came in. Offered a continental breakfast. The location was particularly good, for example, an art museum was a 10-15 minute walk from the hotel. It was set right by a tram station. Everything was simply very comfortable.
