fantastic stay!

The location was central. the hotel features underground parking, so that was quite convenient. i found exiting the garage straightforward. Scanning the ticket at the white line worked perfectly for me.

the bathroom fan seemed to run constantly, emitting a slight noise.

Excellent City Hotel

functional deskbreakfast buffetcentral locationcooling capacity

The room featured a functional desk suitable for work. An adequate breakfast buffet was offered (I particularly enjoyed the fresh croissants). The central location was ideal for accessing local attractions. Underground parking provided secure storage for my vehicle.

The in-room air conditioning unit looked to have limited cooling capacity.

Service

9/10

The staff at the reception provided clear directions to nearby restaurants. They also explained hotel amenities, including the breakfast schedule and access to the parking garage. The team answered my questions promptly and efficiently.
