I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms looked lovely, but the fact that they were quite small and had a bad smell, along with the noise from nearby repair works, was a downside. The staff was friendly and helpful, despite a minor issue with the boiler not being hot enough. The location was convenient for city exploration but faced challenges with street conditions. The dining options were basic, and parking was costly, which was disappointing.

The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with a nice balcony, ideal for relaxation. However, the Internet connection was inconsistent. The service is excellent, though at times I found the staff not very friendly. The location is convenient, especially being very close to the train station for easy access to the airport, but the surrounding area may not be suitable for family trips due to its proximity to the red light district. The dining experience was satisfactory with a decent buffet selection. Overall, a mixed experience with some notable positives and negatives.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The rooms were great, with comfy beds and fun mood lighting to play with, offering excellent space for the price. However, the room I stayed in was a bit stuffy and had an unpleasant smell coming from the courtyard. The service was a mix of loud morning talk but overall friendly and professional. The location, while very central near the main train station, had its drawbacks of being surrounded by strip clubs and strange individuals. The dining experience was decent, with a variety of options to choose from. The facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were super swanky with modern decor and cool neon mood lighting strips, but it was a letdown that my double room wasn't stocked with basic amenities like coffee. The staff were friendly and accommodating, which was a plus, but the location was a bit dodgy with adult entertainment establishments nearby. The dining options were nice, although a bit pricey, and the facilities were decent overall.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were clean and cozy, with trendy lighting and efficient air conditioning. The service was good, with the staff being helpful in providing towels and a fan, although they could have been more generous with greetings. The location, while strategic and close to the main train station, could be a bit intimidating for first-time visitors due to the presence of drug addicts in the area. The dining experience was average, and the facilities met my basic needs.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The compact single room was well-equipped, but the size made it challenging to move around comfortably. The furniture showed signs of wear and tear, yet it served its purpose well. Unfortunately, the room did not have the breakfast table as shown in the photos, which was a small letdown after a busy few days of work travel.

The hotel was located in a rough area with a lot of unwanted elements, making it unsuitable for families. The rooms, although basic, were comfortable and cute but came at a higher price. The service was friendly and helpful, with occasional discounts to justify the slightly pricey rates. The dining experience varied from excellent to being less impressive. Overall, it's not the ideal choice due to the location and some drawbacks in the services.

I found that the hotel's rooms were modern, very clean, and spacious with a balcony, a big improvement over the standard rooms. However, they face noisy streets. The service, although well-behaved and helpful, seemed a bit understaffed at times. The location was convenient but situated in an area with strip clubs and people under the influence of substances, making it a bit uncomfortable at night. The dining options were limited and not very appetizing, which was a downside given the great location of the hotel. Overall, my stay had its mix of positives and negatives.

The hotel offers a nice view from the rather small economy room, equipped with an iron; however, the flickering colored lights were a bit disturbing at night. The service was really kind and helpful, despite the presence of undesirable elements nearby. The location, though close to the main station, can be uncomfortable due to the adjacent red light district. The dining options were good but seemingly overpriced. Overall, a mixed experience with both positives and negatives.

The hotel rooms were small but clean with free, really good coffee. Although the rooms were a bit cluttered with unnecessary furniture and far from each other, there was an unreserved room next to one of them. The service was friendly and helpful, especially at the reception, despite not being very keen on checking for solutions. The location had some negative aspects with lots of junkies and drunks hanging around, but it was not terrible overall. The dining experience was good but a little overpriced for the value offered. The facilities were decent with no specific comments.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms, albeit tight and hot, had a unique design with LED colors and a TV above the bed. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. However, the location in the red light district was noisy and unsettling, especially for families. The dining options were a bit hit or miss. Overall, it's a place with some quirks and highlights.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were spotless and clean, they were extremely tight for two people. The service, particularly the housekeeping, was lacking as they seemed annoyed at our requests. The location was a big letdown being right in the middle of the red-light district. The dining options were basic, and the parking situation was expensive with no hotel-owned parking available.
