The room was nice. Small, like most European hotel rooms are, but very comfortable.
I chose the hotel because it is very convenient to the train station. It is also in a good location for walking along the river. There is a good restaurant attached to the hotel.

Great location, with comfortable rooms, and scope for three or four single beds per room, making it a reasonably-priced options in an otherwise very expensive city. Plenty of breakfast and other dining options right outside.

The best location imaginable. Rooms are small but clean, newly furnished, new bathroom. The entrance looks a little old but the rest is perfect! Staf very helpful and friendly. Didn't have breakfast, so cant comment, but plenty of options nearby for that if you wish.

Very convenient location. Room was very simple, but comfortable and clean. Room stayed warm during the winter. I had a room that faced a small interior courtyard, so I did not experience any noise from the street. I was by the elevator so there was some noise from folks coming and going periodically. Overall, it was quiet. I would consider staying here again.
