The hotel has a perfect location in the city center. A grocery store is a short walk away, great because the room includes a fridge and a small kitchen (I used it every day!).

The tv paused sometimes.

small bathroom tight shower

i was a little disappointed with my stay. the bathroom was quite small. the shower area felt tight, and i found it hard to move comfortably when i tried to soap myself. it wasn't the worst thing, but it definitely impacted my experience.
