The room had a safe for valuables. I found free coffee and tea in the basement. The hotel provided a daily breakfast at a nearby sister hotel. It included fruit and pastries. I appreciated the complimentary wine and snacks available in the afternoon.
The front door required a key to enter at all times. This felt somewhat inconvenient.

I found the location quite central, and i could easily reach nearby attractions. also, the free drinks in the basement were a nice touch. I certainly made the most of them.
My room faced the street, and i noticed some street noise at night. Light sleepers might want to request a room away from the front. additionally, the breakfast felt somewhat basic. I hoped for a larger selection.
