I had a mixed experience during my stay at the hotel. The location is fantastic, close to public transport, but the rooms were a bit dark and some amenities weren't functioning. The staff was friendly, which helped balance things out, but the dining options left much to be desired, being quite basic and lacking in quality. Overall, it has potential but requires some improvements.

The hotel is located in a bustling area, close to the tramway and metro, making it easy to get around the city. The staff was friendly and always willing to help, but sometimes a bit slow, which was a minor drawback. The rooms weren't in the best condition, with some issues like non-functioning air conditioning. Overall, for the price, it offers decent value but could use some improvements.
