IKEA chic hotel for young people! It isn't the best location for business people but definitely for the younger crowd; The 128 guestrooms all feature a cool retro style with suavely textured wallpaper, visible concrete, and plenty of lustrous white, or playful romantic-chic with floral wallpaper, zebrawood, and accents in red and magenta; Every room has been treated with a discreet, clear style and the maximum level of versatility; Almost all of the furniture has been individually designed by young designers and combined with genuine design classics; Rooms are available in M, L, XL & studio sizes to offer space and freedom for every need and budget. For small families and groups, there are also XL Family rooms, and even the 25hours guesthouse; One issue though - "25rooms" isn't close to anything; The hotel is in a kind of suburb; But if you're okay with taking a taxi, this is a great low-cost hotel
