The hotel has a great location, being a short walk from the city center and close to cycle routes. However, the rooms weren't as clean as expected, with some unpleasant odors and uncomfortable beds. The service staff were friendly and attentive, but the dining options left much to be desired. Overall, I felt that the price did not match the experience I had during my stay.
