Hotel is pretty modern, reception staff on checking, polite. Room was ready early but not sure if it was a superior king, we booked, room was small, with a unnecessary tatty floor lamp, that took up valuable space. Room and bathroom were dusty and a bit grubby, bathroom smelt of sewerage the whole time we were there, on our last day we came back to an unmade bed and the water or coffee had nit been replenished. Apart from the size of the room the worst part was the bed, was very uncomfortable, it was just what seemed like 2 foam mattress sofa beds put together, with a 2" topper, there was nothing to keep the beds together so they kept moving apart. The aircon didnt seem to work or be very strong, during our whole stay we had to have the window open, whereby there was only an inch gap. We would not stay againe or recommend this hotel.

The room was dirty and there was no air con so we were roasting. We had noisy neighbours and we complained to reception but they never got back to us. Would not stay there again purely for how dirty the room was.

Great stay. Location was great. It was an easy walk to several tram stops and an easy walk to restaurants. The bed was comfy (kind of narrow twin). Morning breakfast was nice. I would definitely stay there again.

Nice hotel in a great location. 10/15 min walk in to the main areas or only 2 mins to a tram stop on which you can get all the way back to Central Station. The rooms were clean and had a comfortable bed and good shower. Only downside was the lack of a bar in the hotel. They are attached to a restaurant however it is definitely more of a restaurant than a bar and we felt in the way while just having a drink - maybe it was just a busy time/evening? You can buy drinks and snacks in the reception but they’re very expensive.
