The hotel is located in a very nice area, only a nice walk away from the zoo. There are several bars, bakeries and restaurants nearby as well as some good supermarkets. A tram line runs just in front of the hotel which makes it easily accessible, however, the tram and cars make the rooms quite noisy if the window is open (and as there is no AC in the room, you cannot survive unless you open it). Not all the staff members were able to communicate in English in a proper way, nevertheless, they were absolutely helpful.
