My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, although comfortable and equipped with nice amenities like a spacious bathroom and tea and coffee making facilities, felt a bit outdated in terms of style. The service was incredibly helpful, and the breakfast had a wide selection to choose from. The location was superb, right in the heart of the city and close to various attractions. The dining experience offered a good selection, although it could have been enhanced with better pastries. The facilities were satisfactory, but nothing exceptional.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nice and spacious but unfortunately very noisy due to traffic noise. On the bright side, they were well heated and had a spacious bathroom with tea and coffee making facilities. The service was excellent, with very friendly and accommodating staff, and the location couldn't have been better, just a short walk to the main square. However, the dining options were good but a bit overpriced. Overall, a decent stay with some minor drawbacks.
