the location suited me very well, with convenient access to public transport. i found the breakfast to offer many options for a good start to the day. i had access to the executive living room on the 8th floor. a complimentary mini bar offered good value.

The hotel's garage does not manage charging for electric vehicles appropriately. This is frustrating. i experienced delays on my return trip because of this issue. the hotel should implement a better system.

The staff was very helpful every time i needed something. They provided directions and extra pillows. i liked that room cleaning happened only if needed, and you just had to inform them before 11am. the location was walkable to the shopping area but two stops from the central train station.

the hotel did not manage its garage properly. they have four chargers for electrical vehicles, but they do not manage them well. people parked cars there that were not charging, with total impunity. the hotel seemed not to care about the situation.

the location is superb with a u-bahn station only a brief walk away, making city exploration simple, a superior plus room granted access to the living room with its convenient light bites, drinks and breakfast options throughout the day, i found a quiet room on the seventh floor to be a good size, also there were vegetarian choices available.

i noticed they do not have a restaurant in the hotel for dinner, a minor inconvenience.

really good cleanlinesspoorly managed garagelow water pressure

The room size was good and its cleanliness was really good.

The hotel garage seems poorly managed. I had trouble charging my electric car because other vehicles were parked at the charging stations without actually charging. The hotel staff didn't seem to care much or offer any real solutions, which caused a significant delay for my return trip (not exactly what I wanted). the water pressure in the shower was ridiculously low.

the location was acceptable for accessing public transport.

The room was too small for four people. the fold-out bed lacked comfort and the room felt too hot. i found the breakfast restaurant was over capacity. There were no available tables upon my arrival. i ended up eating outside in cold conditions.
