Good location and clean room

Shower door needs better seal to prevent water splash getting to bathroom floor. Each day we waste a towel to seal the water splash and getting towel completely soaked with water.

Exceptional Stay—Highly Recommended I had a fantastic experience at this hotel and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the entire stay feel welcoming and stress-free. The room was clean, well-appointed, and comfortable, with a great shower that was especially convenient for families with kids. The beds were plush and supportive, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. I also appreciated the modern TV setup and entertainment options—perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. The hotel’s location is ideal, right in the heart of the city and within walking distance of major tourist attractions, restaurants, and shops. It made exploring the area effortless and enjoyable. One of the standout features was the breakfast buffet—hands down the best I’ve ever had. I genuinely looked forward to it every morning. The variety, quality, and freshness of the offerings were exceptional. Additional amenities like the gym and lounge areas were well-maintained and added to the overall comfort and convenience of the stay. In short, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. I’ll definitely be returning.

In addition to being excellent in every category, the hotel was just one block away from the train station - the central hub of all public transportation: metro, trains, buses, and trams. Public transportation was terrific. You can purchase your daily, or multiple day, pass at the airport and travel to the hotel and almost any place you want to visit during your stay.

It was good but not as good as two years ago. The room was smaller than last time and the price was quite a bit higher.
