10/10 Excellent
"I had a wonderful stay in this hotel. Although the solo rooms look small in the photos, they are quite big and comfortable. The hotel is well-kept, has very helpful staff and offers a great breakfast. It's also well-located, with plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. Be aware that if you don't book your room with breakfast included, it will be an extra €32, which is too steep a price for what is on offering."

"This was an unusual property but the digital operations worked fairly well until the check out process which I think needs to be thought through a little more. The free storage lockers was super generous and appreciated and the tea and coffee in the locker area is a very nice touch. The room was very comfortable and the sink being outside the bathroom was a good idea. The storage area was very good. All round happy and would look at Zuma again."
