Typical Ibis experience; compact room was very clean and functional, as was every area of the hotel. Really enjoyed the self-service breakfast. Staff were all excellent and very helpful. Ideally located for the Lake, Buses and Trains, with only a short walk along the lake to the Old Town. Don't be put off by reviews saying the surrounding area is unsafe, it is a little grubby and noisy, but felt perfectly safe. Restaurants immediately outside are serving mainly Middle Eastern food, everything else you could want to eat is within 50-100m walk towards the City Centre.

We booked an upsize room here and it was worth the additional money. Overall we thought this place was welcoming, efficient, comfortable and reasonable value. I liked the fact we were sent our free city transport passes in advance Our return journey involved a far worse hotel- we’ll stick with IBIS in future!

Room was small but very clean, modern and adequate for a good stay. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom appeared to have been recently refurbished - very clean and an excellent shower. No safe or kettle in the room, but complimentary hot drinks were available in the reception area (although there was no milk). Staff were friendly and helpful. Well located - a short walk from the main train station, and also the lake. I would have no hesitation in returning here.

Your average budget hotel. If you want fluffy towels & Nespresso machines, this is not the hotel for you. However, Location can’t be beat & staff is delightful! Reviews about red light district are true but never felt unsafe or scared! Great value!

Stayed here for one night to be close to the station. Hotel was clean and conveniently located, rooms were fine. Kevin at reception was super helpful and provided some great advice for the area. But We had an early train and the area didn’t feel the safest walking around.
