Good basic place. Helpful staff. Great location if you have stuff in the city center. The 15th floor corridor has a loud phone to call housekeeping staff. It’s annoying and disturbs one’s sleep. The hotel should find a better system to reach their staff that does not disturb its guests.

Depending on the room location (preferably downstairs/ground floor) the room is reasonably confortable. There are however a lot of insects in the room due to short doors. The service overall is impeccable which makes a one night stay great overall.
