Quiet and confortable room. Good location.
Heino, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved this hotel. Quiet, good restaurants around, close to the station. And really good staff
Norma, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was great overall. Staff was nice as we arrive before check in time and was able to store our luggage. The front desk area had free beverages which was neat. The room was nice and clean, I like that the shower and bathtub were separated. The bed was comfy and I liked the controls for the lights. It was pretty romantic too. They provide free water whenever they clean the room and I like how you can choose if you want a light cleaning or full cleaning. There is also laundry station and public bathhouse which you can see on the tv in your room if they are occupied or not.
