Chose Your Room Very Carefully
Pros:

Excellent location for exploring Old Town. Good breakfast. Convenient parking.

Cons:

The Room was in the ground floor facing the street with a bar across the street. The hall way to the room was open to the reception area. This all meant that there was regular noise such as people in the street at 3 Am and deliveries to the hotel. People entering the hotel could also be heard in the room, On check out the person on the desk did not even ask how the stay was. There probably are better rooms in the hotel but after three nights of constantly interrupted sleep I could not recommend this hotel.

For the price and the fact that it was a four star hotel, this was a disappointing stay.
Pros:

The proximity to Old Town and the main station was excellent! It was very easy to walk around and catch a tram/train around the city.

The staff were very friendly and polite, they spoke good English, and we had no problems on that end. The WiFi worked and was easy to connect to.

Cons:

The hotel was charming, but poorly laid out and moldy in the bathroom. The view from our room was toted as charming Old Town, but it was just a boarded up old building.

There was hardly enough room in the bedroom to even get out of the bed, and the mattress itself was very uncomfortable. We didn't get particularly restful sleep.

There was only one chair, and the bed was incredibly low, so chilling out in the room wasn't feasible long term.

The bathroom had mold on the walls, grime on the shower head, and spots where the particle board was starting to disintegrate. The renovations didn't seem well thought out at all.

The AC maxed out at 18° C (64° F), but it never felt like it blew cold air at all on the hotter days we tried to use it. We relied on the window, but it could get a bit stuffy. I gave up on using the duvet entirely. I can't imagine staying when it's actually hot outside.

Breakfast was convenient, but some things you could tell were just defrosted.
