Clean and nice hotel. We were only there for one night but we were very satisfied. The rooms are clean, the staff is very friendly and helpful and it is fairly central. Parking is a bit difficult but with a little patience you can still find a free spot. Negative: €15 to park in the underground car park for one night was too much for me personally. Otherwise great price/performance.

We had a pleasant stay at the Premier Inn. It is only a few stops from the train station. The room was comfortable and had everything you need for a short stay. Breakfast was also delicious and was always replenished. The service was good, but sometimes you had to keep an eye out for the staff. All in all, I would definitely stay here again.

Booked 2 rooms along with a colleague as we where travelling for work. First of all, although while booking I chose to pay on arrival, the amount was withdrawn from my account immediately.Upon arrival, and as most of the reviews state, the room smelled badly and we had to always have the air-conditioning on for it to go away.Although we stayed for 3 days, no-one ever came to clean up the room, or even just throw away the garbage.Only two towels where available (for body and face) alhough I stayed in a double room.Finally, on our final day and before checking out, around 08:30 in the morning, a gentleman working in the hotel knocked on both our doors, simply looked at us and without explaining why he was there, left. What would have happened if we where still asleep?Overall, I tend to prefer Premier Inn as a hotel chain, but this one is one of the unfortunate exceptions.

The hotel is close to the city center. Very good location in a quiet place. Easy to find.There is a free parking lot in front of the hotel for 30 minutes for hotel guests. The hotel offers parking at a cost of €12 per day. The parking lot is underground. Limited entry of large-size vehicles. The bus may have problems with safe entry. I had a passenger car with a roof rack and I got in without any problems. However, there are apartment blocks with street parking in the area. We left the car there for free parking. Streets lit with monitoring signs.Clean, nice hotel with nice English-speaking staff. Large ground floor space with numerous sofas to relax. Very affordable for this location and class of hotels. I paid €70 for 3 people + breakfast. Very large elevator with quick movement between floors. Everywhere clean and tidy. Monitoring within the facility.Very quick check-in and check-out.

Room doors slam very loudly.Otherwise great rooms and modern bathroom in a small space.Breakfast was good except for the rolls. I think you should just serve fresh bread rolls at a hotel like this. The ones there were were tiny. That's almost outrageous.However, the only employee at breakfast was world class. He throws the entire breakfast. I hope that his performance will be honored. Respect.Parking garage is also extremely narrow at the entrance.Otherwise everything was great.

The service simply leaves something to be desired:To get things in the mood, there was a false alarm from the fire alarm system, but okay, better. It works. The next tough point is hot water, it wasn't available until late at night so you could only shower with ice-cold water. At 4:00 a.m. the hotel got the idea that you hadn't checked in at all and started trouble with booking. That doesn't work at all... It's a shame that the service can be improved.
