Great location one minutefrom train station and one minutefrom the lake yeah, so u can quicklyjump in whenever u want, brunchwas decent not like fancybut got some good stuff—coffee was nice. Rooms cleaned maybe not perfect but good enough through the morning rush pplgetting loudbumping doors or whatever. Staff seemedokay, friendly-ish I guess but) definitely helped when asked fast. Thin walls soundedfun however did what needed no fuss. Easy metro rides from hereso donezo when wiped running bout city. Whole vibe chilled with some chaos around soz didn’t get to eat by lakeside tho; weekend mood hectic! Overall? Sweet spot for quick stay. Would it be hassle if toured more? Maybebit. Butgivenlocation + walkable trains? Pretty neat score timesick outcos time flys here.luckystart yeah..
