    Perfect location. Close to tram stops & restaurants. We were upgraded to a large & comfortable room with a kitchen closet that included a refrigerator, microwave & water kettle. Staff was happy to help when asked.

    Fabulous location . Very close to the train station and downtown. Very cute rom, small but nice. Our free welcome drink turned into a free bottle of beautiful wine with bread and charcuterie.

    Perfect location for exploring Old Town, literally steps away and super close to train station. The staff were so freindly and helpful and I would stay here again and again.
