Located in a beautifully remodeled old factory complex, we appreciated the unique atmosphere, which included a café and art studios. Transportation was a breeze with a tram station right next door and the central train station just a short stroll away, making exploring this city effortless.

I loved the location of the hotel, as it's only a short walk from both the tram station and supermarket. The cleanliness was impressive, with well-maintained rooms and communal areas. I found the staff to be friendly and helpful, and I appreciated the free public transport ticket provided during my stay. The artistic vibe of the building added to the overall atmosphere, making it a unique place to rest.
