No ventilation in the room. Had a street facing room in the 1st floor- not particularly convenient to open the window to ventilate. Product is basic and adequate. Not designed to spend anytime in the room other than sleep.

Great hotel but a bit outside the main city center

Really nice hotel, modern and in a quiet part of the city. It’s a bit of a walk from the train station especially with luggage but doable. My room was clean and spacious and included a desk. I would book again.

My friends and I very much enjoyed staying one night in this hotel. It’s got some nice decorations and design. Rooms are modern and up to date. Comfortable bedding. A bit disappointed in the breakfast buffet (15,90€ per person) selection and seating area… wouldn’t recommend it. Lounge area for evening drink is nice!
