Pros:

What I liked most was the staff; they were always very friendly and willing to help us with anything we needed. The breakfasts were substantial and good, and the room was very comfortable. There is a bus that commutes to the city center.

Pleasant and somewhat worth the money, but not the best
Pros:

The staff were polite and welcoming, the location wasn’t really far off the city centre, an Uber was also affordable from the hotel to the city centre

Cons:

The rooms were quite tight, no chair or a table to sit and work. The flooring in the room and entire hotel needs a remake, it’s gotten darker and visibly dirty. No, room tissues, nor at least first day complementary water provided as many hotels do, no disposal slippers especially with a dirty floor as such

Určitě doporučuji ubytování! Pokud se vrátíme tak určitě sem!
Pros:

Moc milý personál, přijeli jsme z letiště v 10 hodin, a check-in byl od 15hod, i přesto nás ubytovali, takže za to moc děkujeme!
Personál jak na recepci, tak na snídaních velice ochotný a milý!
Bylo čisto, postele měkké a pohodlné, jen táhne od okna trochu.
Do centra to je 35 minut chůzí
