Walls of rooms extremely thin - I could hear the ppl in the next room talking - which made me very aware of trying not to make noise Very prompt reply to my complaint of water being cold. And to be fair - it just needed to run for longer - but literally someone was up to my room in less than 10 minutes- very impressed with that. Everyone friendly and helpful. Travelled solo and felt very safe

Overall no problem except having mosquitos in the room. Also there was little smell in the room. Maybe due to old building. It wasn’t too bad. It’s convenient location though and breakfast included.

Good Location with shopping within walking distance. We had three people in our group so we rented the room that had a second bedroom in the loft. It worked out great! The bathroom was large which also helped. Good value for the money. We would stay here again.

Great for a city stay
We LOVED our stay in the Alba Hotel. It's only 5 mins from the railway station and 10 mins from all the attractions etc. There is a square real close with loads of bars and restaurants in but the hotel is quiet. Also a supermarket. The room was nice, the bathroom small but more that adequate for a 4 night city break.
