Guests said this property is very convenient to the train station and tram lines. Furthermore, many reviews mentioned they were able to get free transit passes upon request, which made their trips a little handier overall.


Negative Reviews

negative:

No Restaurant or Bar

Some guests were disappointed that although the property has a breakfast room, there is no on-site option for getting later meals or alcohol. However, guests clarified that there are nearby places to do those things within walking distance, so most were only mildly upset that the hotel didn't have the amenities.

negative:

Refrigerators Not Always Cold

Guests who had refrigerators in their rooms occasionally reported that the appliances did not stay appropriately cold. When the issue was reported to staff, employees did what they could to resolve it, but guests still felt frustrated in some cases.

negative:

You Must Book Parking in Advance

Some guests were unpleasantly surprised when they discovered that the hotel's car park is rather small, meaning parking has to be booked before arrival. Although guests mentioned they were able to find parking elsewhere when necessary, some said they wished the hotel would have a different parking arrangement.
