No curfew, no official lock-out during the day (though, expect a bit of testiness if you tread on the newly mopped floor), and a laid-back staff. The location right across the Grand Canal from the train station couldn’t have been more convenient and I remember thinking that my pillow was particularly comfy (could have been the red wine consumption, though). The rooms have nice big lockers for storing your valuables and the kitchenette has a fridge (bonus!).

All in all, great.
