Reviews based on Location
The hotel was clean and comfortable, breakfast was good, perfect location for walk everywhere to explore the city. If you are a couple is will be totally 5/5 but as if you family with kids you need to be prepared to pay extra in front of the reception, even you informed them that we are 3 person and booked the rooms for 3 persons, and even get the email to confirm about the room before we booked the room. It’s a small issue that it’s actually annoying us a lot, I think the booking system should be better about it, make it’s clear about the price and amount of the total guests that can have in the room.
Good location, and a clean room. Too many people on breakfast - there was no place to sit. Very basic breakfast, no potatoes, too little vegetables. Our room was connected with another room so we heard everything from others. Booking gave us an upgrade, so we had hoped for a better room but we got only a connected room on the 2nd floor and that was a disappointment.
