perfect loft room experience!
loft roomcharming stylefresh pastriesattentive staff
we were three adults so finding a semi-private shared room proved challenging. this hotel presented a loft room and it was perfect! the room's style was very charming, split over two levels. i found this layout ideal for our needs! the breakfast selection included plenty of fresh pastries. the kitchen staff were attentive each morning!
the bathroom was particularly small and i could hear sounds through the thin walls.

Wonderful Stay Near the Station!
convenient locationfast connectionhelpful staffclean room
The location was convenient! I walked only five minutes from the train station to the hotel. The fast Wi-Fi connection was very helpful, and the staff allowed me to store luggage before check-in. The room was clean and very tidy.
The decor looked slightly outdated, though it was still comfortable.

The hotel offers convenient luggage storage both before check-in and after check-out, a benefit I greatly appreciated. The reception service operates 24/7, which provided extra security and convenience for late arrivals or early departures. A fast and reliable Wi-Fi network is available throughout the premises, ensuring connectivity.

A diverse breakfast buffet with varied options was available each morning, and the coffee was AMAZING!!! The happy hour in the bar included a complimentary drink during afternoons. Breakfast started slightly earlier than scheduled due to my need to catch a flight home.

The hotel is located within short walking distance of the main train station, simplifying travel. I noticed there were several restaurants and supermarkets located in the immediate vicinity. Taxis were readily available and could be called directly by the hotel staff.
