The only downside was that there is construction going on and if your room faces the tram tracks or main road entrance, you actually will hear the noises up until 1-2 am in the morning before starting again at 7 am. Xpress area to buy breakfast is pretty decent, didn't try out the warm food at night nor the bar though."
