In five weeks of travel in Europe we had our best sleep here.everything was clean, the bed was comfy and we could actually adjust the room temperature so it was comfortable to sleep. Breakfast was amazing! Quality, variety, quantity… We locked our power converter in our car in a locked parking garage. Front desk found us one! We would definitely go back again!

The Niu Wave is a brand new hotel with modern facilities. Above all it is clean, is equiped with a good breakfast restaurant. The television has it's own chromecast built-in so you can stream your own movies to this television. Hard to imagine there is a better hotel.
