Nice hotel in a great location. 10/15 min walk in to the main areas or only 2 mins to a tram stop on which you can get all the way back to Central Station. The rooms were clean and had a comfortable bed and good shower. Only downside was the lack of a bar in the hotel. They are attached to a restaurant however it is definitely more of a restaurant than a bar and we felt in the way while just having a drink - maybe it was just a busy time/evening? You can buy drinks and snacks in the reception but they’re very expensive.

While the room was tiny, the property was a great home base to explore the city. We were able to easily walk or tram to most anywhere we wanted to go. The room was clean, staff was friendly, and we had a nice stay. The shower is very small which meant the bathroom got wet while bathing, but that was a small inconvenience for a great, affordable hotel.
