Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests generally appreciated the hotel's central location and cleanliness, with many mentioning the friendly staff and the quality of the restaurant. However, several reviews pointed out issues with noise, particularly from the bar and restaurant below, which caused disturbances during the evening. Overall, it is a decent place to stay, but those sensitive to noise may want to reconsider.AI-generated from customer reviews
