The place was nice, but the noise from the surrounding pubs was too much, usually the music lasted until 5 AM.

Good location - gets a little noisy at night if you keep your windows open - shut them and turn on the A C if needed.

There is no lift from ground level to first level and you should carry your luggage by yourself.
Staff are not friendly.

Staff working at the recepte are very nice but it is absolutely not hygienic in the room, we had to ask the staff to change the bed clothes and it was never done. They came into the rum to make the bed and leave water bottles, so we had to wash cups with only water for a whole week
