This hotel boasts a wonderful location near the historical center and the tram station, making it easy to explore. My room was clean and very comfortable, which I really appreciated. The staff were friendly and helpful, always willing to assist. However, the dining options could use some improvement, as there weren't many choices for breakfast. Overall, it's a decent place to stay with good value for money, but there's room for enhancement in some areas.

The hotel is in a great location, very close to the metro and historical sites. My room was modern and spacious, offering a comfortable stay. However, the dining experience fell short with limited options, and the noise from the street made it a bit less relaxing. Overall, it provides good value for money with decent amenities.

I had a great experience at this hotel, which is in a prime location just steps away from the historical center and close to the tram station. The rooms were tidy and cozy, and the staff were very accommodating. However, breakfast left something to be desired in terms of variety, and the pool area could be a bit crowded at times. In terms of value for money, I felt it was reasonable but not perfect.
