I booked a room for one night because I went to a concert at the city hall. The accommodation was good. It was very cheap and the location was good. The beds were comfortable. I also liked that there was free hot drinks and water downstairs.

The check in and check out times were very inconvenient, check in at 4pm, check out at 10am.
