Excellent location and easy to...

Liked: The location of this hotel is excellent. We took the train, and the hotel was easy to get to because it was close to the station. The proximity also helped us reach all of the popular points of attraction on foot. There were many cafes and restaurants around. The room was spacious and wide. Beds were comfortable. The room was clean. The design and style of the hotel were nice and pleasing.
Disliked: There were many guests. It's a bit crowded during the check-in and breakfast hours. Breakfast times were quite noisy, but there was a decent selection of food available. The food display area was small and limited according to the number of guests staying there. Queues for coffee or fruit juice negatively impact guests' experience at the hotel. There were no slippers in the room. The noise of heels could be heard in the middle of the night from the upper floor due to the parquet flooring.
