“Clean and spacious room with a very comfy memory foam bed. Perfect location in the historic center, close to sights and public transport. The neighborhood felt safe even with nearby bars, and the provided toiletries and free water were a nice touch. Easy to find from the station with clear signage, and the host was flexible about late check-in.”
