It's easy to love the location in quiet lanes in the old city's northeast, a short stroll from the heart of things and close to the riverbed park. The hotel is new and comfortable but has a restrained feel, with polite staff and pared-back design with soft greys and browns. Reception is part-time, so you may get a door code.
