charmed by the experience!

comfortable bed clean bathroom friendly staff
i booked a standard twin room. the beds were very comfortable and clean. the bathroom was clean as new. all staff i encountered were friendly and polite (always smiling!). the breakfast was one of the best i've had.
the room was noisy. we were disturbed throughout the night. it was worse as we had requested a quiet room prior to arrival.
Service

the staff ensured a smooth check-in process and were available for any questions. i noticed that the reception area was always tidy. staff members were quick to assist with luggage and offered directions to local attractions.
Location

the location offers easy access to shopping areas. christmas markets are very close by for anyone interested in visiting during the holiday season. going out at night is convenient due to the proximity of restaurants and bars.
Dining

the breakfast buffet included a variety of options. i appreciated that there were fresh pastries and fruit available (especially the croissants!). the dining area was clean and well-kept each morning.

adequate stay overall

friendly staff coffee facilities cold room uncomfortable mattress
the reception staff were friendly and efficient on arrival. my room on the fourth floor included coffee and tea making facilities. i also had complimentary mineral water in the mini fridge.
the room was cold, even with the heating on. i heard a dripping noise at various times from above the bedroom. the mattress wasn't particularly comfortable either.

Acceptable Stay with a Heating Issue

noisy space heater heating issue
The breakfast was good with plenty of choices.
My room's heating system was not working. A small, noisy space heater was installed as a replacement. I found this unacceptable given the price of the room.

City Center Charm

friendly staff excellent location fresh fruit
The staff were lovely , they ensured a nice stay. The location offered excellent access to transport and shops. The breakfast included diverse options. I liked the fresh fruit selection.
My room faced the street, so it was noisy because of a bar nearby. The music was quite loud , late into the night. Better soundproofing might help.
