The rooms were very nice and the bar area was comfortable and spacious. When I checked in, the room I was given was already occupied, which was very disconcerting. Then upon checking it, we were charged for breakfast that we did not have. Both things were quickly taken care of by the very helpful and apologetic staff.

Liked: Cleanliness
Comfortable beds. Good location near the city center and next to the swimming pool. Too few showers in the common areas. The last floor, for example, has only 1 shower and 2 WCs for 10 rooms (some of which are triple rooms) which is more than insufficient at busy times (morning, evening).

Its a fine property, but you really need to pay for the private room as this is also a college dorm. If you do a shared space it will be with college kids. Breakfast was good and rooms were clean and well maintained.

We were originally assigned a student room with bathroom down the hall. We asked for a better room and were transferred to the "hotel" side of the complex. The front desk staff was kind and very informative, almost entertaining. We enjoyed the area.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Had everything I needed and the price was fantastic. There is no soundproofing so it really comes down to luck as to who the other guests are. I was lucky in that the floor was quiet but I can see how it could get loud. Everything was super clean and the room was comfortable. No frills and cheap and thats exactly what I was looking for.

A perfect family hotel

We as a family of five had 2 rooms, each room has three comfortable beds. It’s a student dorm turned into a hotel during summer, but with all necessities covered. We were aware of the expensive breakfast so we organised ourselves elsewhere. Free and spacious parking and free good working WiFi. There was also a bar at the hotel. Definitely a place to come back to.

Literally a college dorm that is used as a hotel when students are out for summer. Shares parking with the botanical gardens. They are free and worth a visit.
