"Great cost benefit in a modern hotel. Pros: It is a 15-minute walk from the city center. The rooms are modern and new. There is a very good ceiling showerhead. The place is very clean. Self-check-in and check-out. Cons: The bathroom has no door - the toilet and shower are separated, but there is a curtain to separate from the room. The room and the beds are small. Breakfast was the most disappointing part: very basic with stale bread and no juice."
