My stay at the hotel was a great experience overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The location was convenient with a good balance between the center and nearby attractions. However, the dining experience was a bit chaotic and overwhelming at times.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, although clean, were small and cramped, but they were adequate for a short stay. The staff was friendly and helpful, but lacked in promptness during dining service. The location was convenient for sightseeing but had poor Wi-Fi connectivity. The dining options were good overall, with a few minor flaws. The facilities met basic needs without any standout amenities.

My stay at the hotel was overall very enjoyable. The room was decent with a comfortable bed, but it was a bit small, and the shower could use a tray. The service was outstanding, especially in organizing extras like a taxi and breakfast for our early flight. The location was convenient, close to entertainment venues and shopping areas, although not centrally located. The dining experience was better than expected, with high-quality offerings, but it was a bit chaotic during peak times. Overall, a good value for money.

The hotel had a mix of pros and cons. The rooms were on the small side but pleasantly cosy. There was initially an issue with cleanliness in our room, but after raising it, we were moved to a bigger, acceptable room. However, the overall room quality was average, lacking options for pillows, a steamer iron, and specific hangers for trousers.

The hotel was fine overall, but there were some aspects that could have been better. The rooms were decent, but the breakfast area was a bit cramped. The service was mixed; noise was an issue but at least they apologized. The location was convenient, close to attractions but also some construction noise. The dining experience was standard with some drawbacks.

Our stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were perfect and clean, offering us a great view of the city. Being next to each other as requested was a definite plus, although they were not exactly as pictured on the booking site. The service was beyond awesome and helpful, though there were minor instances of staff being a bit uninterested. The location was exactly what we expected, allowing us to reach everything on foot, and being close to tram stops and the city center. The dining experience was satisfactory, with a good selection of cold meats and cheeses, but could have had more variety to cater better to different dietary preferences. Overall, a wonderful stay with some minor hiccups.
