Nice!
Nice place, perfect if you look for a cheap place to stay in the city centre.
Very basic room. Went during winter. Extra blanket would’ve been nice. Nothing special. Wouldn’t stay here long but 1 night was ok. Location was very central. Super close to the train station and trams.

It's on a great location with everything you need for a budget hotel. Kind personnel and everything you need.
It can be bit noisy and the toilets could be maintained a bit better, but all in all definitely worth the money

After gaining entry through a safely locked door and climbing a flight of the stairs we were allocated our room. Small but adequate with a cleanly made bed, tv and heater. Tea n coffee supplied. 3 bathrooms a 1minute walk down the corridor. I felt safe and with the heater on for 2 days the room was warm. Quite central to everywhere.
