Great stay. Large room, nice included extras.
Great hotel. Good location. Nice sized rooms with lots of amenities - free water, snacks, etc. Only complaint is that the beds are quite firm. Not used to this, but maybe it’s a European thing. We would definitely stay here again.

The staff were wonderful and helpful. Construction/scaffolding right outside our room. Late night noise on the street into early morning hours. Woke up to no water one day.
