"Huge shower was a major plus and the bed was actually one large bed instead of two twins pushed together which was nice."

easy walkssmooth self-check-inblackout curtains

The location enabled easy walks to city attractions. the self-check-in process was smooth. the room featured blackout curtains. I slept soundly through the night.

The bathroom sink was quite small. It was a bit difficult to manage toiletries.

the beds comfort was acceptable.

self check-in caused problems because i did not received the code prior to arrival. there was no staff available to help with this matter, and getting assistance required calling an international number. the luggage storage room lacked supervision as well.

the easy check-in process was a relief after my travels. my room was very clean with a comfortable bed. there was plenty of parking available, so convenient.

The room was too hot, even with the heat off and the window open. i also found that the bathroom was quite small. the soundproofing was poor. I could hear doors slamming at various times.

convenient stay with easy access

spacious roomcomfortable bedeasy access

The room was spacious. The bed was really comfortable. The shower was large with great water pressure. I really appreciated the easy self check in. The system with codes for the doors worked well, accessing the room easily. Luggage storage was available before check in. I contacted the staff by email and phone. They were very easy to reach.

The parking situation was a little difficult. Finding a spot was tough because the available spaces are shared with other properties. The back parking area only has a limited number of spots. The keypad in the back sometimes did not work, but the one on the first floor worked fine.

Dining

9/10

I noticed there is a supermarket within a few minutes walk, so buying snacks or drinks is easy. For more options, the city center is about a ten minute walk, offering various restaurants and cafes.
