Really good Stay with Modern Amenities

hypoallergenic beddingcomfortable sleepmissing air conditioning
I found hypoallergenic bedding in the room, which ensured a comfortable sleep. The hotel restaurant provided a peaceful view of the lake and mountains from the upper floors. I appreciated that the window opened allowing fresh air into the room. The staff provided me with tickets for free local public transport upon arrival.
The hotel lacked air conditioning in the room and it was not possible to open the window wide. The fan helped a little. This made sleeping difficult when the weather was warmer.

The room was quite spacious and clean. The location is really close to the Metro station. I found the breakfast buffet to be good with healthy choices.
The room had no air conditioning, only a fan. I didn't find any shops or other restaurants nearby. The hotel felt a bit like a hospital because of its proximity and connection to medical facilities.
