Gary United States of America

Location great, direct access from the airport, walking distance from mayor parts of the city, breakfast excellent, a lot to choose from (both for light and "full" breakfast :) )

Grzegorz Poland

Beautiful place to stay. Bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, exceeded expectations. Location perfect to access from train station

Laura Australia

This was my second stay at this hotel. the first time was much better. the hotel is great. the location is beautiful, but the room was very tiny, and the mattress was very thin. I woke up with back pain. Otherwise, my first stay was excellent.

Incognita1 United States of America

I stayed at this hotel on two different rooms: the first one (upgraded and paid $10 Euro) was AMAZING, spacious and comfortable, and the second one not so much (much smaller room and thin mattress that look more like a pillow top than a mattress). This is my only reason to not give them a 10. The location is EXCELLENT. The hotel is right next to the train station. the area is super safe and full of stores and restaurants and walking distance to many attractions. the hotel was beautiful! I absolutely recommend!
