Överlag bra men för mjuka sängar
Gulligt litet hotell, fint och nyrenoverat. Helt OK utbud på frukost men sängarna va otroligt mjuka så gick knappt att sova i dom.

Vad man behöver till ett rimligt pris
Mysigt trevligt hotell med vad man behöver. Bra läge precis bredvid spårvagns stopp. Det enda som vi saknade var bättre luftkonditionering på rummet som blev väldigt varmt

Supermysigt hotell. Nära till allt. Härlig innergård där man kan äta sin frukost om man vill. Trevlig personal, bra frukost. Vi hade ett perfekt rum för 2 personer, med innergården som utsikt. Hit kommer jag igen. :)
