Pros:

We liked a lot the hall, the bar, the kindness of the staff and the design of the hotel. Great plus the free card for public transport. Perfect position, right in the center of the city.

just to sleep ok, but not a cheap fun.
Pros:

the location is simply great, it is literally just down town within 50 meters to plenty of bars and restaurants.
the rest was totally fine as well but nothing special.

Cons:

we didn't opt for breakfast and at the end we seemed to have made the right choice. the breakfast area didn't seem to be very comfortable.
