a nice anniversary stay
breakfast varietyeffective dietary needsconvenient location
I found the breakfast variety to be excellent. the dietary needs section addressed gluten-free requirements effectively. It was a relief. the location provided easy access to transport. Trams are just across the street. nearby are the royal palace and national theater. i appreciated this convenience a lot.
the air conditioning was quite noisy. it was also drafty and difficult to adjust.

The breakfast room was light and spacious. The food selection was really good and well presented. The location offered easy access to trams. It was also easy walking into the city center.
The ventilation in the room was noisy. It was impossible to sleep all night. Even with earplugs, it sounded like an industrial site. Staff did not offer another room when I consulted them regarding the noise issue.
