Comfortable and conveniently located.
Pros:

Large bedroom. Friendly staff. Good location. Good breakfast.

Cons:

When I arrived in the restaurant for dinner no one was on duty. After 10 minutes some one turned up. The dinner was only moderately good: overcooked pasta drowned in tomato sauce.

Nostalgia dei tempi passati
Pros:

Struttura grande e pulita

Cons:

Per una camera di un albergo a 4 stelle nemmeno troppo economica, avere un solo comodino non è il massimo, come non lo è nemmeno trovare un flaconcino di bagno schiuma a meta.
Infine, in un salone della colazione da decine e decine di posti, una sola macchinetta funzionante per caffè e cappuccino vuol dire costringere a una coda di 15’.

Goede ligging binnen de stadsring, maar toch buiten het drukke historische centrum.
Pros:

Uitstekende garage onder het hotel.
Ruime lobby en goede bar.

Cons:

Matig ontbijt.
Slechte geluidsisolatie en dus veel lawaai van de straat.
