I recently stayed at this hotel and had a fantastic experience! The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. The room was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant atmosphere. I really appreciated the quietness; it was peaceful and allowed us to rest comfortably. The hotel’s central location made it easy to explore the city. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a cozy and convenient stay!

My stay of 4 days was quite good, let's say that the only "bad" thing is the bathroom, which is quite small, for the rest, the cleanliness is good, the location is unbeatable, the rooms have a kitchen, refrigerator, a station to make coffee …

Lovely hotel in a great location, don’t get discouraged by the negative reviews! I stayed here for a week with my brother and we had a great experience. Yes, there is some water damage on the ceiling and the appliances might be a little dated,however the hotel still covers all the necessities and the little kitchenette was very beneficial. The staff is super friendly and the surrounding area is super walkable with lots of cute coffee shops and restaurants, there are also bus and tube stations in a walkable distance and the closest grocery store is three minutes away. I definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again!
