The property is in a central and very convenient location. It’s less than a 5-minute walk from the train station. The staff was great and helpful. The room was a bit too warm for my liking but not a huge deal. Overall, a solid property.

The Alex is a traditional hotel, it is good in the heat of the summer so it must be great for the winter snow season. Very convenient for the station being only 150M to psh the cases.
