The rooms, food, location, beer, and vibes are amazing. In particular, I like how the hotel is walking distance – even with luggage – from the train station, but not in a touristy spot. With just a 10-15m walk, you can get to the heart of tourism.

The location was amazing. The history surrounding the area was fascinating, and we loved that part a lot. We also enjoyed that we were surrounded by great restaurants (we did not eat on location; it seemed a little too pricey for what was offered). The people working at check-in were friendly and knowledgeable.
