Pros:

Location, kind staff and clean rooms.

Cons:

I had an engine or something similar next to my room so the noise trough the night was very disturbing and couldn’t sleep properly. Also a person tried to open my room door banging on the door at 3:am, I didn’t open of course. I know is not the hotel fault but being on the ground floor should have been solved by the concierge and it went for a long hour.
Also no phone on the room to call for help.
