I had a wonderful surprise stay at this hotel located at the back, offering nice and warm rooms with an adjustable radiator and provided tea and coffee in the bedroom. The service from the Lovely People was very kind and helpful, even though some staff were a bit unwelcoming. The location was a bit out of the way but convenient with free street parking nearby. Overall, a lovely experience with some minor drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and had all the modern facilities I needed, but the price was quite high due to a concert event. The shared bathroom situation felt more like a hostel setup rather than a hotel. However, the next night the price went back to a more reasonable rate.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were wide, with a nice décor and very clean. Although the shower floor seemed dangerously slippery, I managed to avoid any incidents, so no complaints. The service was very friendly and helpful. The location, while not in the city center, was convenient for easy access and quiet surroundings. The dining experience was good overall with room for improvement in some areas. Enjoyed my brief stay there.
