The neighborhood feels safe, with a police station directly opposite the hotel and many restaurants and supermarkets nearby.

A cold buffet breakfast is served daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM, featuring fresh bread, pastries, sliced meats, cheeses, yogurt, and fruit juices. Guests can also order breakfast in their room for added convenience. The surrounding area offers numerous local restaurants and a creperie with gluten-free options, all within a 5-minute walk.
