The location is a short walk from several museums and tourist attractions. The staff were all very friendly. When i arrives they even gave me options two rooms for me to choose from. The view from my room was beautiful.

Requires repair. Hotel stay terrible. Stayed regularly at the hotel since 2012. Now the hotel has become worse and needs repair, the smell of sewerage in the bathrooms, the roof leaks in the rooms, the Internet constantly freezes and you have to ask to restart the router. Breakfast has become very modest, they save on everything. Previously great breakfasts. If you can get a coffee you are lucky, because coffee machine broken. In the mornings, there were a lot of people at breakfast, as people from 3 hotels gather, the breakfast area itself is small and suitable for only 1 hotel. Previously, the hotel had free tea and coffee all time, now only for breakfast. In general, the hotel has become much worse. In the refrigerator steal food that was left for storage. The staff is friendly which is a plus.
