Pros:

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice restaurant with a happy hour from five to seven.

Cons:

Strangely they play lift-type muzak in the corridors and open floor areas all night long. This makes no sense whatsoever because it seeps into the rooms and makes sleep difficult.

Good hotel with some quirks
Pros:

Well located hotel, close many restaurants.
Rooms are big and clean.

Cons:

Breakfast buffet was not always available because of low occupancy.
A/C unit can be noisy.
Rooms facing the street are extremely noisy on weekends.
Weird laundry rules, you need to prepay your laundry or you don't get it back...

A convenient and comfortable stay made even better by warm, thoughtful service.
Pros:

The hotel is in a very central and convenient location, with plenty of restaurants and cafés within easy reach. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially Johan at reception, who made my check-in quick and seamless. I also really appreciated his thoughtful birthday message — such a small but lovely personal touch that made me feel very welcome.

Cons:

Nothing in particular. My stay was very short — just overnight — and everything I needed for a comfortable stay was there.
