A free shuttle runs every 30 minutes to the airport during the day which is useful. The location is very close to the tram station, one stop from the airport. The front desk team was pleasant, professional, and helpful, and checking in was simple. The rooms provide all amenities and a comfortable bed.
I found that the smart switches in the room are confusing. It took a little while to figure out how they operate. some instructions would be useful.

i found the hotel's location convenient. the tram to the city center was just steps away (, made exploring so easy!). they also have convenient parking in the garage for those arriving by car.
during my stay, i encountered an issue with the drainage in the washbowl and bathing place. the water drained very slowly, requiring me to wait several minutes before i could use the facilities again. i informed the staff upon leaving, hoping this will be addressed soon.

The shuttle service was excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful. The modern design was luxurious throughout the premises. Windows did open. The A/C switched off when I opened them. This seemed environmentally conscious.
Restaurant facilities were limited . An event made the restaurant unavailable. I wish there had been more options for dining on-site, though.
