The building is very old, the rooms are small, but it's the city center and not very expansive. Also the breakfast is good.

Superb location, staff is super kind ! Very easy to walk around the city from the hotel. A pity the beers are so expensive, but that's the same for other places in the country.

I'd seen this hotel on Instagram and wanted to visit. It appeared just as it did in the photos. You can walk to it from Central Station, but it's better to take the tram. It was extremely accessible to everywhere you wanted to go. The interior was also super cute, with lots of lovely furniture. Wherever you take a photo it looks stylish. I was looking forward to breakfast, too, but it was a vegan-like meal, which was a little disappointing. More than that, it was a lovely space, so I'm glad I went.

The price is reasonable, the room is clean, and the breakfast has a rich selection of food. It is suitable for students. But it is quite far from the train station, and it might be very embarrassing to carry luggage when it snows.
