Excellent hotel. Extremely clean room, bedding, and mattress. Staff was friendly and very helpful in answering questions about where to go eat, etc. The one thing to note that the Expedia listing does not make clear is that there is basically no privacy when taking a shower, which can be bad if you are sharing a room with family or friends.

The proximity to the railway station and rental rate were the attractions for this retired couple. Our room was clean but bruised. We were disturbed by the debris in the area. The neighborhood gave us the sense of being unsafe after dark. The restaurant next door served a multi optioned breakfast, which a price advantage our the hotel. The hotel staff was outgoing and accomodating.

Recommended place; very good

This place is really nice and super clean with modern design; we really enjoyed our staying there. Not very close to touristy area, but I can't say the location was not good as it was very close to Kappeli station. The only issue that made me not feeling 5-star was that there was not a fridge in the room.

The property itself met my expectations. I was particularly impressed by how quiet my room was. I hate to complain, but I was not prepared for a non air-conditioned experience, especially because the window in the room was on a timer and kept closing itself. Also the location is not central to the tourist attractions. Be advised that the restaurant is not open on Saturday and Sunday. Closest bars are 15 minute walk.
