Pretty well perfect. ”

For the price you are getting a great value! Location is perfect. You’re a step away from the city centre. The hotel is very beautiful with a grand staircase for entrance (there is lifts as well). Breakfast and lunch are just an elevator ride down, all you can eat for a very reasonable price. The room is clean and I was satisfied. My room did not have a mini fridge or a safe, so look into the details of your room amenities if that’s an issue for you. Overall 8.5/10!
