Close to nice places but also great connection to central station and the city center. stayery is always a good pick, if you want to have a bit more private home feel and be independent. the staff was nice and also the Lounge very inviting. they were very verbal on the location and the proximity of the night club and had earplugs placed in the room as well (and excuses everywhere)

    Attention it is not a hotel it is a room in a private home. If you book and want to cancel, the owner will tell you ok face to face and then refuse and you will not get your money back; even if you explain that the term "establishment" in the ad means business and not private accommodation.
