A central location and friendly staff were the cheer leaders of our stay. Unfortunately we found the room over furnished for the 17m2 available, barely room to unpack. The windows were painted shut, which for a small room was uncomfortable not to have fresh air. The lift did not go to our floor directly which meant a flight of 8 stairs with luggage to get to our tightly packed away room. A pretty hotel.

Check In was superb, my bags were carried up the stairs to my room - the rooms are on split levels so the lift does not necessarily land on the same level as your room. Room was quiet and warm Staff are helpful and accomodating.
