My stay at the hotel was a bit mixed. While the rooms were crowded for four people and had some issues like missing bath towels and bugs, the location was fantastic, close to the Lake and many attractions. The service was a bit lacking in friendliness initially but improved later on. The dining experience had a good variety of food, and overall, the facilities were satisfactory.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms had terraces with a calm view, but the loud music from the cafe made it hard for the kids to sleep. The service was a bit cold but responsive and friendly during my early checkout. The location was convenient for tourists, with easy access to key spots, but the area felt slightly sketchy. The dining experience was good, with friendly staff, though room for improvement in setup. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.

My stay at the hotel was relaxing, with decently clean and spacious rooms featuring comfortable double beds. The underground car park was convenient, despite requiring a parking fee.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was extremely small and felt dirty for a 4-star hotel. It had a strong smell of cannabis, likely due to poor cleaning and buzzing lamps. On the positive side, the service was very kind and helpful, especially in the rooms, but lacked the same level of attention at the dining room. The location was convenient, near the railway station and surrounded by supermarkets and restaurants, though it was a bit far from the river and unexpectedly close to the red light district. The dining experience was decent, with good food selection but lacking some variety. Overall, a central hotel with friendly staff but with noticeable room issues and an unexpected location drawback.
