The summer terrace dining seems like a particularly nice touch.”

the location is central, with a tram stop right outside, made getting around simple. reception offered complimentary sweets and flavored water (a sweet touch!). the room was spacious and well equipped. i found plenty of dining options close by.
my room faced a lively area, and the soundproofing wasn't perfect, so some street noise was audible during the night (though, i brought earplugs).
