Céntrico y moderno
Pros:

La situación privilegiada del hotel. Por eso lo elegí. Y la decoración de la sala de desayuno y el bar.

Cons:

Creo que pagando lo que se paga podrían poner un armario o una mesilla de noche con cajón. Las perchas sin más, me parecen insuficientes.

Even nicer and quieter than expected. Great location - viewable from train station.
Pros:

We could basically see it from the train station which was great as we walked over in the rain

Cons:

A la carte breakfast items and drinks would be preferable to the buffet. No idea if the hotel has happy hour or tea time with a la carte drinks and snacks but that would be great and they have the nice dining lounge and vibe for it

Overall it was okay but would probably look elsewhere for next time.
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

The breakfast was often out but they did resupply pretty quickly. Other places we’ve been to allowed order off of a short menu when you were paying that much for room and a meal. Here was not like that. Room was too warm and shower first day was freezing cold.

Pros:

A localização era perfeita, mas os quartos eram mínimos e a limpeza era suficientemente boa, mas o hotel deveria ter uma apresentação e limpeza muitissimo melhor.

Os quartos são feios e pequenos. A limpeza deixa bastante a desejar.
