I found the hotel located near local restaurants and a short walk to public transport. The staff were always helpful, which I appreciated a lot. My private room was spacious enough! Coffee and tea were always available, AMAZING!!! A communal room at the entrance provided computers and chargers. A communal kitchen let me cook my own meals.

The room was smaller than expected, though it still met my basic needs for a short stay.

The location was acceptable and near the conference center.

I booked a room here, but the conditions were not good. The female dormitory had mold everywhere, and there was no space to sit up in the bed area because the ceiling was low. The photos did not show the reality.
