The Hotel was a pleasant suprise, as it doesn't look much from outside. Number one, it has a lift in the building, though there are maybe 6 or 7 stairs to the entrance. The room was sufficient for my needs with an even temperature. The shower is large and the toilet has an anti-drop lid. I like the overalldesign it was very resting to the eyes. The bed was comfy and warm. It had a kettle and the water was replenished daily. The buffet breakfast was a treat, I enjoyed the options. I observed the staff, they are attentive, deligent and very clean. I was very impressed by the care they took. The area is very convenient but some people may find it a little rough around the edges. It is so well connected transport wise, and your food options are so so good.

Hôtel très bien

Avant de réserver j'ai hésité à cause de quelques mauvais commentaires, mais chacun a le droit de s'exprimer comme il veut. J'ai visité les 4 coins du monde et je peux dire que les atouts que j'ai eu avec ma petite famille dans cet hôtel me poussent à remercier tous le staff. Très bon rapport qualité prix, très bon emplacement à proximité de toutes les commodités, transports et sites touristiques. La navette pour l'aéroport est à 5mn de marche, le petit déjeuner est copieux et varié, de l'eau, des serviettes et produits de toilette renouvelés tous les jours, linge changé quotidiennement, petite salle de bain mais suffisante pour une douche chaude. Bref très bon hôtel pour un petit prix. Après chacun voit midi à sa façon

try to avoid it

Good points to start on a good note: location, price, close to Metro, Trams, shopping , restaurans. The not ver good bits: room was dated, there was a hole in bathroom, so you could hear other rooms, A/C working only part time, very little choice of breakfast (one day even with no coffee), staff speaks no English or German The WORST part: Noise! I had room at the back and there was some generator running outside all the time. Throuout the night (litterarly all night) someone has been smashing somethig inside the hotel, so I kept waking up in shock several times. Somehow I made it through the 4 nights, but would not come back ever.
