The hotel needs renovation. There’s only 1 pillow per person. No body lotion. The front desk are not “that friendly”, no one bothered to inform us that the luggage cart won’t fit in the narrow elevator. The location is “perfect”

We needed a close hotel to the train station and Expedia suggested this one. Lots of restaurants nearby. Pleasant staff at the front desk. Nice spacious room. Perfect for our needs, though the bathtub was deep to get in and out of (bad knees). The breakfast on the 8th floor was good and the view outstanding. Definitely will stay here again.

The hotel room is a bit small for 3 people ( triple room). We were given the first floor and was quite noisy as we could hear the trams passing by most of the time till midnight . There is no air conditioning except a fan. However , the location is excellent , just a few minutes walk to the Train station, tram and bus stops.
