Good place for a business trip.
Pros:

Location is great, central but calm, walking distance to everything. Lot’s of restaurants and cafes, monuments nearby. Room was clean.

Cons:

Got the room at the top floor, so attic ceiling are not the most comfortable. Otherwise all good.

Great value, helpful personnel, great location
Pros:

Comfortable rooms, sparking clean bathrooms, quiet street, close to huge grocery store (Manor). Both the lady who checked us in (didn't catch her name) and Amad (who got us checked out and was kind enough to order us a taxi when our Uber never showed up) were wonderful. The hotel was also very kind in letting us check in an hour early.

Cons:

Nothing comes to mind

Pros:

The room was huge and comfortable. The place is perfect to explore ciry on foot. Nice bars right outside the hotel.

Cons:

Breakfast was very disapointing. It looked not fresh. Also, there were no hot food, only simple sandwiches and eggs.
