It was very close to the train station, which was convenient but The parts of the city that you would want to spend time in were about a15 minute walk away. There is excellent public transportation very conveniently located but we did not use it.

Modern, clean and nice rooms. A bit tricky to park the car, but no biggie. The night staff was a bit on the grumpier side though, could have been a bit more welcoming.

Close to tram
This hotel was practically located with easy access to trams in every direction. Beds were too soft and pillows like a rock. Breakfast way too expensive for what was offered.
