    Silent room with bedrooms, a great shower, as example as expected.

    My bed was very hard.

    Very good

    Great location, easy to get to all the good bits on the other side of the city. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

    Check-in was slow and the breakfast was a disappointment. It started late and when I arrived, there were already people waiting and not everything was put out.

    Accommodating staff, new-fashioned room with good shower.

    Location right in the heart of the city was a plus. The room was welcoming & amazing with nice speakers on the ceiling, kettle, as for instance. The provided service was nice.

    Perfect

    This hotel in the center of the city offers great value for money. The rooms, with their modern decor and waterfall showers, are clean and well-appointed. The staff are friendly and provide excellent service. Plus, the hotel's location literally on top of a pub with a beer garden adds to the lively atmosphere.

    No major issues, everything was fine.

    Design of the rooms looked modern, rooms themselves were compact and unique. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, the breakfast was satisfactory.

    Very good

    The location of the hotel was fantastic, being close to all the major attractions and the city center. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing great customer service. Plus, the rooms were clean and well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable stay.

    The noise from outside was unbearable, especially on Friday nights. It seemed to come from the nearby bar, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep.
