A great place to stay.
Pros:

My room was very quiet once I moved away from the elevators. Facilities are modern, breakfast substantial, staff lovely and location brilliant.

Cons:

Several trip hazards in room and around the foyer. Room was extremely hot, couldn’t open the windows and so slept poorly.

Third time a charm.
Pros:

Third time here. Still a delight. The staff is always helpful to fulfil my personal needs. Breakfast is really good. Rooms are of good size and very comfy. Next to the station. In the middle of the pedestrian area. Will come again next year for sure!

Cons:

Only negative point is the too limited option for (very) early breakfast. But i guess that it is difficult to accomodate everyone's needs outside the opening hours.

Nice friendly hotel in city centre
Pros:

Great central location, easy to check in and out and good breakfast spread.
Room was spacious and comfortable and everything worked

Cons:

No desk in the room and it was a bit tricky to set the temperature in the room. I've stayed here before and will do again
