positive:
Super central location
If you are arriving by train, then this place is a short stroll from the station. Being so central it's also close to all of the major action such as the best restaurants and some great bars. You also find no better place to stay if you're heading for the opera.
positive:
Unbelievable gym
The hotel gym is in the basement and free for all guests to use. It's very well-equipped, and some would say that it's even better than many gyms at five-star properties. An entire basement full of all the best workout gear is a real surprise in this quirky little hotel.
positive:
Service with a smile
The people that work at this hotel do their very best to ensure that everyone is having a great time. They are very relaxed in their attitude, but that doesn't mean they aren't professional. You get a warm welcome here, and there's rarely any service issues.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Not the best value for money
This hotel has a great location and is perfectly acceptable, but if you want more for your cash, then there are other hotels in the area with slightly better rooms and amenities. There's not even a restaurant on-site which can be a bit of a drawback.
negative:
Very small rooms
The rooms at this city centre hotel are small enough that guests have felt the need to complain. If you value affordability over comfort, then this is the place for you. Some say that the name Comfort Hotel is actually quite ironic.
negative:
Not as clean as it should be
There are a few issues here and there where guests have noticed that the place hasn't been cleaned properly. Dirty floors and dust on surfaces leave you thinking that maybe they need more housekeeping staff.
