substandard air conditioninglimited buffet

The air conditioning was substandard. The room became uncomfortably warm, I asked about it. The staff suggested opening a window, a solution I found inadequate given the price. Breakfast also lacked variety. The buffet offered limited choices. More options should be available considering the hotel's reputation.

The location was good at a reasonable price.

The staff didn't seem very NICE. I tried some German, but apparently it wasn't good enough. We wanted extra coffee, but they only gave us one packet each the first morning. I had to ASK for another packet the second day.

quiet neighborhoodeasy connectionpublic transportclean hotel

i stayed for several nights and just loved the location. It was in a quieter neighborhood, away from main tourist areas. public transport access was easy.. everything i needed was close. The hotel was very clean.

the elevator is small. It did not fit a wheelchair with a person inside.

Rooms

9/10

The room decor was lovely. The bed and sheets seemed like sleeping on clouds. Multi-function plug sockets, including British-style ones, were available, and a fridge was very useful to store some items.

Location

10/10

The hotel has a perfect location. It's right in the middle of the city, yet remains on the quieter side. It is very easy to access, with convenient connections available and everything needed close by.
