This family-run hotel is very well located on a quiet street, within walking distance to the museums and the metro stop. The surrounding area has abundant options for restaurants and cafes.

The location of this hotel was amazing! It’s right by a tram stop and just close enough to the action while being quiet and peaceful night. The staff were so kind and helpful. The rooms were bigger than most I’ve had in Europe and were very clean. I would definitely stay here again and I recommend you do too!

Nice little hotel tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. We were in one of the other than main properties and there was a bit of noise from the family in residence upstairs. Other than inadequate sound proofing between floors we had an excellent stay

Nice, clean hotel in a good location. Sadly the walls are thin and we could hear the people in the next room talking and their shower at 12pm every night (not their fault). Also only one english tea in the room on day one, then no e and when we enquired in reception the guy just told us they had run out and we felt there was no effort to go out and get more.
