The hotel was spotless clean, very nice rooms. The location is perfect and has everything you need in a 3min walk. I can recommend the breakfast, its served fresh everyday. It was just was a bit to much for me as a single person. But thats nothing to complain. Can definitely recommend this Hotel. Also the way of checking is really cool.

Great location! Right near the city center. Rooms were spacious and clean. It was very easy getting ahold of and communicating with the staff. The wifi was great. We were able to store our bags before check in and after check out. The communal kitchen was clean and nice. Our only complaint was that we had to wait until 14h to check in. Otherwise this was a great place to stay and I will def be coming back👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
