Eccentric Decor and Friendly Staff!

wonderful building helpful staff delicious breakfast
The building's restoration is wonderful! The staff was helpful. I found the breakfast delicious. It included various options. The location near the train station worked well. Buses and trams nearby offer easy access to the city center.
The industrial decor didn't quite work for me, I found it was not very functional, I noticed that there was no place to hang wet towels or robes. The AC unit made noise behind the closet!

the staff seemed fine (as far as i could tell).
The room felt cramped. the noise from outside was unbearable. I could hear every car and loud conversation. the minibar was also empty. I expected at least a complimentary bottle of water, but there was nothing at all. also, the gym was a joke. It had one treadmill and a couple of dumbbells.
