The breakfast was really good, with a lot of options. The room was spacious. I liked the excellent ventilation system and really good noise insulation. The restaurant dinner was very good too.
I felt the hotel does not try to. The rooms are poorly equipped. There were no complementary water or glasses for water. There wasn't a closet either, just one small drawer.

The hotel is near the train station. Only two stops got me to the central station. the room was very spacious (ideal for moving around and placing luggage). the bed offered great comfort, ensuring a restful night after a long day of travel.
The internal acoustic isolation was subpar. I could clearly hear noises from the mechanical ventilation system.

the breakfast had tasty and varied options. i liked that the hotel had lounge areas available. there were games to play and a fitness center was available too. it was nice to have those amenities available.
the air conditioning system did not work in the room. it was just a basic room and i felt it was too basic considering the price. a box of kleenex in the bathroom would have been a nice addition.
