great location comfortable bed strong shower
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
friendly staff city center convenient location m-tickets app
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.

broken window black mould
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).
