I stayed in a King Studio. I was really impressed with the staff, who are cheerful, helpful and go out of their way to help. The room is large for the price and well equipped with a kitchenette, dining bench and desk, as well as the usual bed, TV and bathroom. The room was comfortable and quiet and everything worked. The location is great, near restaurants, trams and trains. I would definitely stay again and have already recommended it to friends.

Exceptional value for money here - everything was better than expected. Fantastic location! Right near some excellent restaurants and bars. My ONLY complaint was the bright, flashing light on the TV when it was off. It would have been nice to be able to unplug it but I couldn't get to the plug so I threw a couple of towels over the whole thing, lol. So great otherwise; would definitely stay there again.

The staff where very responsive and the price and size of the room are great for the location. The apartments might be considered dated by todays standards but they have everything you need, bar proper heating. My only gripe would be somehow the half day / late check out is the same as a full overnight price.

My stay was great the reception staff was great and provided me with early check in. I would like to point only one thing, there is a hole in the kitchen cabinets room no. 601 and it throws cold air, probably connected to mechanical system of the building. As I stayed in cold weather and the room heater was not thay strong, it was a little uncomfortable. Other than that, I had a great time.
