"Klein aber fein"

8.0

Preis Leistung Top. Wir hatten das kompakte Zimmer gehabt und haben für 3 Nächte so 380€ bezahlt. Viel günstiger als die Konkurrenz. Es war sauber und man hatte alles nötige gehabt.

Es ist halt sehr klein das Zimmer zumindest das Kompakte Zimmer. Es gibt ja auch größere Zimmer aber für einen anderen Preis. Es gibt halt kaum möglich etwas aufzuhängen bzw keine Ablagen im Bad. Aber da man die meisten Zeit die schöne Stadt man anschaut passt das.

"Good value and location"

8.0

Location to public transport was outstanding, like right outside the front door; routes 23/27. Toll cross bus stop was a 3 minute walk away, providing access to more routes. Bathroom was very updated and nice. Checkin was easy and very helpful. Bed was very comfortable.

The room was a bit dated and awkward. The TV was mounted on a wall that made it difficult to see. The bureau was an IKEA wall closet that couldn’t be shut when hangers were used; gave a cheapness feel to the room. Very limited on power outlets; none in bathroom, only two by the bed and that was pretty much it. They have a strict no food policy, yet provided a mini drink fridge?🤷‍♂️
