Really good Central Accommodation
nice decoration suitable size key tourist attractions
I found the room decoration quite nice, with a very suitable size. The location proved excellent, right in the heart of everything. I appreciated the proximity to restaurants, bars, and key tourist attractions. The train station was also conveniently close.
I experienced some noise at night because of the nearby bars and nightlife. Thin walls let sound travel easily and street noise was audible. This might disturb light sleepers and I found no lift.

Central Gem
fantastic location luggage storage bottled water
The location was fantastic. It was right in the centre. I appreciated that they allowed me to store my bags next door after checkout (very convenient). Earplugs and bottled water were provided, and I thought that was very thoughtful.
The configuration of the bathroom was a bit strange. The sinks were small, so washing up made a mess. the automatic light linked to the bedroom could disturb someone sleeping when used during the night.

The staff offered helpful service, and I felt welcome . There was also a shared kitchen (it had coffee pads) which was very useful for preparing simple meals or drinks.
Rooms

Adequate Stay, Some Noise Issues
clean room futon furniture interior design street noise difficult lock kicked door
The room was very clean. It had futon furniture of good quality. I liked the nice interior design.
The street was noisy at night AND early morning. The door to the apartment was difficult to lock from outside. I noticed evidence of the door being kicked in at some point on the inside.
