Although it's located a bit outside the city center, public transport is within walking distance, and the on-site restaurant and lively pub appear to be worth exploring. It seems to me a solid choice.”

unprofessional staffhard bed
The reception staff seemed uninterested and unprofessional. I saw them lounging on their phones during both of my visits. The room smelled strongly of lilies , which was overwhelming. The bed was also very hard and uncomfortable. the free parking advertised turned out to be severely limited, with only about ten very tight spaces.
