I really like that coffee and tea are for free and that you have the possibility of using a fridge to store food and cook by yourself. The decoration is really nice as well and the staff is very friendly. Furthermore it’s not in the loud city centre but you can reach it by feet within 15 minutes. Also around this place there are many lovely cosy bars where you can meet lots of local people and also prices are lower than in the old town. I really liked my stay and would always come back ##### M Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Matthew 4 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service There was no window blind and you had to hold ##### Matthew Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aleksandar 31 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bare bra Du får det som du betaler for.
