Fantastic Stay Near Everything

great location comfortable bed free water
The location was great. It's a short walk to the city center. I got a lovely refurbished room, it felt very independent. Free coffee and water were provided (a welcome bonus). The bed was comfortable and I slept well each night.
The air conditioning unit was behind the curtains, slightly less effective at cooling the room quickly.

Rooms

The rooms are modern, very clean, and generously sized for two people. My room included a proper hairdryer and an iron with ironing board. The bathroom had Davines products. I found this luxurious.
