Good hotel near the city center. You can park in the underground car park for 10 euros per night or for free on the parking deck. The room was modern and clean. The only defect was the mold in the shower. The breakfast buffet was large and tasty. There is a bar in the hotel with delicious cocktails and food. The price per night was okay. Tram stop and supermarket right next door. Would stay here again

We were very satisfied. Dogs are welcome, the breakfast was very extensive, a breakfast package was made for us on Sunday because we had to leave early. The staff, no matter where, was very friendly and accommodating. We would be happy to stay at this hotel again. Thank you very much

No, definitely not a 4 star hotel.Upon entering I already felt stuffy, not to mention the blue light in the closed parking garage.The rooms have an old-fashioned appearance.The elevator almost falls apart in misery.The breakfast room looks fresh.The young man who then collects the tables in a T-shirt, sweatpants and sneakers is not done for me.No, certainly not a 4 star hotel, I have stayed in better 2 star hotels.

In rooms on the street side, keep windows closed because of the tram that passes regularly.
