The hotel is simple but nice, good size comfortable rooms. And the location is very convenient from the airport and to get around town. The neighborhood has some interesting restaurant and bars to explore.

Hotel Slisko
Quirky hotel down a quiet side street but near to public transport. Large room with comfy beds. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast was overwhelming in the variety of choices presented. We would have liked a kettle or coffee maker in the room, but only a minor issue really.
