7.0/10

The hotel is conveniently located in the city center, near various historical sites and easily accessible to popular attractions. The rooms, although a good size, had a poorly fitting window overlooking the road. The service was friendly, but staff seemed to focus on cost-saving measures. The dining experience offered a reasonable buffet with fresh pastries and a variety of options, though the quality was sometimes below average. Despite the semi-dark ambiance throughout the hotel, the location remains a standout feature for those seeking proximity to key landmarks.

The hotel's rooms had wooden floors, giving a cleaner look compared to the old carpeted corridors. Unfortunately, the rooms felt hot like saunas despite active air conditioning that did not cool effectively. The view was of the back side of buildings with trash outside, and the carpet seemed outdated and worn. The service was inconsistent but had moments of kindness. The location was convenient near key attractions but lacked a welcoming atmosphere. The dining had some good options but was not extensive. Overall, the hotel had its ups and downs.

I found the hotel's location to be excellent, just a few steps from the train and tram stations, right in the center of town. The rooms were quite small but quite adequate. The service, from cleaners to management, was cordial and helpful. The dining experience was this hotel's saving grace, with numerous fresh pastries, rolls, fruits, and more offered unlimited. However, the lighting in the hotel was quite dim, possibly to conceal its aging decor.
