the location was fantastic, just a couple minutes walk from the bus and tram. the bed was very comfortable (i slept like a log!). the shower was hot and strong. i appreciate the restaurants nearby, and a tesco express is just around the corner.
there is no lift, so be warned if you have heavy suitcases.

convenient location

The hotel is a short walk to the city center. Buses are easily accessible too. i used the m-tickets app. It offered cheaper tickets i could buy in advance. the staff were very friendly. the tram from the airport was a 30-minute ride directly to the hotel.
The shower's water pressure lessened when other guests showered. That was a slight inconvenience.

Public transport is very close. Both a train station and a bus stop are nearby. the area has local food shops, and i could walk to the city centre. this made exploring the area simple, and i liked that.

The continental breakfast had a simple selection. It was still good enough for me. i booked extra and chose from six different hot breakfast options. This kept me full until evening. there's also a very cozy café one minute from the hotel.

The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, facing the street.
My room's window was broken and held together by tape. Black mould was also growing on the window (a rather unsightly view).
