It's a nice and quiet hotel, friendly staff, good shower, with a good location near public transport (next street) to get into the city centre very fast.
The shower in the bathroom could use some maintenance (black spots around the tub). breakfast is okay, but remains the same all days. the trams nearby can be heard in the room.

Unfortunately, the walls are like paper. every cough and the lightest conversation conveys into the neighbouring room. i do not want to report about the music preferences of the other guests.

Friendly, pleasant, clean. i had a nine year old with me and all was fine.
I thought the website said checkout was at 12 noon, it was in fact 11am (a little early for our flight) however, the hotel accommodated us.

No a/c hence if room window opened to cool room tram noise and shouting of drunks outside (only once) was very loud.breakfast variety was limited though quantity was good

This is a decent hotel in a good position, close to the center of the city. the room was small (one double bed), not much room to walk around, but we spent 90% percent of the time in the city, so it didn't make a difference for us. the room had all the facilities advertised and all were in decent condition. the included breakfast was ok for me, but a few people were saying it's too little; anyway, it's ok to ask for more food if u need it.
The smell of mold in the room the first time we entered it. we left the windows open everytime we went out, so it didn't bother us after that.
