friendly staff early check-in clean room outdated menu missing fridge poor signage
The staff was so friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check in early. The room was very clean.. I noticed the excellent breakfast options and their quality. The hotel is very close to bus stops serving the airport and the tram.
The food menu in the bedroom was completely different from the current menu. The hotel should install up-to-date menus in all rooms. There are no fridges in the bedrooms.. This is disappointing because many other hotels have them. Better signs are needed on the main entrance doors for scanning entry cards. I found it not intuitive.

the room had a comfy mattress and a spacious shower. i also found the daily bed making and fresh towels quite helpful. the bus station across from the building made getting around easy.

the staff was consistently helpful (they really were pretty good). breakfast included a good variety of options. the location was perfect for accessing many points of interest, and public transport was close by. i appreciated the cleanliness of the room and hotel in general.
noise from a nearby bar was noticeable at night. i'd recommend requesting a room on a higher floor to minimize this issue.
