Pros:

Местоположение и дружелюбный персонал.

Cons:

Нет кондиционеров и лифта. Очень сложно подниматься на 4-й этаж. Лестницы очень неудобные и в комнате было душно в летний день.

Really good, quirky hotel very close to everything, but be ready for a tight squeeze in the stairwell and possible hot t
Pros:

The location was terrific, very walkable to everything. The beds were also comfortable, and the river view was beautiful including the flower box right outside our window. The lobby staff I met on the first night (a guy with long hair) was extremely helpful and nice—a wonderful welcome.

Cons:

The extremely tight and narrow stairs are a bit of a hazard, especially for older adults and children, and suitcases are hard to maneuver up to the 3rd floor without an elevator. I’m used to tight Dutch stairwells but this was rather extreme.
Also, the room is not air conditioned, which is usually not a problem, but we stayed in 80-90 degree heat so it made sleeping a bit uncomfortable.

Not for families
Pros:

Friendly staff

Cons:

The location was great, yet 25 minutes walk to the Central Station, but it is not the best option for families.
Rooms are terribly hot, small and noisy. You feel that the tram is wandering in the room. Stairs are narrow and steep, hard task if you carry luggage.
Mattresses are terribly uncomfortable.
