Pros:

Staff was friendly. Very clean room
Location is right in the Centre of town so it is very close to everything.

Cons:

My room was right above a bar or restaurant or something like that , music played quite loud until late. People's voices were loud enough that you could almost make out what they were saying. The worst thing was the a/c or heat exchanger it was very loud and ran almost continuously. Maybe other rooms were not so loud but the rooms on the first floor above the lobby were like that

Cozy hostel/hotel with great amenities

The dry sauna was an amazing bonus we didn’t expect, great location right downtown with a bar/restaurant attached and super kind staff! Not to mention pet friendly since we were travelling with our small dog:)

It was fine.
Pros:

The room was fine, but the air conditioning was excellent. It was a very hot weekend, so that was really great. I also like that there is a bar attached to the lobby.

Cons:

There's an extra pillow in a plastic zippered bag. We grabbed it for a little extra padding while watching TV, only to discover it was covered in blood. It looks like someone had a nosebleed and swapped the pillow to avoid a charge. I told staff and, while the front desk person appeared horrified, they did nothing to make it up to us. I don't expect my room for free, but I do expect maybe a drink from the bar or something minimal like that. When the guy brought a new pillow, I had to remind him to take the bloody one. Very underwhelming.

Also, I'd avoid the coffee shop. The staff there seemed entirely checked out, it took forever to get anything, and everything was just ok.
