For us this hotel was in a very convenient location - super close to the central train station and metro line. It is also very close to the old town and we mostly walked to all the main attractions. Although there are lots of homeless people hanging around, there was a police presence and we did not experience any harrasment or crime.
The hotel reception is on the 6th floor, and the room we stayed in was on the 4th floor behind a separate lockable door - access to the building is not secure, because they publish the code on the front door, and there are other businesses within the same building.
There is a lift, but its completely inaccessible sometimes, due to the movement of deliveries and its very small and very slow. If you are unable to take the stairs this should be considered.
The rooms are OK - quite worn but the bedding seemed clean. If you are sensitive to street noise, its would be a poor decision because the traffic is nonstop, but for me this wasn't a problem, just a distant hum when the balcony doors were closed. The roof terrace is nice, and the bar reasonably priced. Some of the photos are out of date, as it doesn't actually have a pool, just 2 surface mounted body temperature whirlpool hot tubs, which have a tight 7 person capacity (one was not working).
In general it met our needs but I personally felt that the hotel was very overpriced for the standard.
