The location was excellent, providing easy access to public transportation. I found the proximity to the airport very convenient. The staff members were helpful and polite.
The breakfast variety was limited. I noticed the coffee machine was often out of service during peak hours. The bathroom lacked sufficient ventilation. I felt this contributed to moisture buildup.

Convenient Stay Near the Airport

short walkquiet bedroomparking payment
I appreciated the hotel's proximity to the airport. It's a short walk. The free tram to the city center provided easy access to attractions. The room was immaculate and quiet, ensuring a restful night.
I found it difficult to locate the hotel entrance when I arrived by car. I had to pay for parking to drop off my luggage, which I felt was unfair.
