Grymt bra, hade kunnat vara bättre frukost.
Pros:

Grymt hotell på nästan alla sätt.

Rummen, servicen, sängarna och spat var riktigt bra.
Överlag kommer man att vara väldigt nöjd med att boka det här hotellet.

Cons:

Frukosten var medelmåttig.
För vår del stängde baren lite för tidigt på kvällarna men det är en liten detalj.

Decent place location wise
Pros:

Nice spacious hotel. Breakfast is a good spread and there is enough options for vegetarians as well (limited of course but sufficient). Location is nice - the park right ahead is a pretty one and across the park is the old town area. So areas like start of walking tours is close enough. One of the larger malls to one side (8-10 mins) and the Art nouveau street is also walking distance if you are fine with 15-20 mins walk. Did not use the spa and so cannot comment

Cons:

AC being switched off in the rooms was not good. We were not informed of the same. The stillness in the air at night was uncomfortable and had to keep windows open. I understand many hotels do this in Europe when they feel summer is over but inform the customer. Booking.com should also be taking care of this
