I found the staff very helpful . Water stations were on each floor. This was very convenient. The location is great. Many restaurants are close by.
My room was quite small. It felt a bit claustrophobic since it was an attic room with small interior-facing windows.

The breakfast buffet had free flowing coffee available anytime. The hotel is in the city center, I could easily walk to the national museum and train station. The room was very clean!
The room felt bare, it also had no view beyond the inner court. There was no water in the room. There weren't even glasses to drink tap water.
