10/10 Excellent
"Great lobby but the room was somewhat dull. Very friendly and helpful staff at the reception and at the restaurant. Good breakfast. Good location on the edge of the old town and a nice park across the street. But the taxi was not able to drop me off or pick me up in front of the hotel due to some restrictions. Be prepared to walk a couple of minutes to the pickup spot."
