limited spaceinconvenient kettle

my room felt quite cramped. space for luggage was very limited, and maneuvering around the bed proved difficult. i also found the lack of a kettle to be inconvenient. i had to go downstairs for hot water, this was a minor but noticeable annoyance. i think the price did not fully reflect the bare-bones experience.

this hotel is super close to the airport, just two tram stops away. a tram stop is right outside the front door. i found the place clean and well kept. it's easy to use public transport to get into the city center or back to the airport.

I noticed that the rooms lacked ordinary plug sockets. I had to buy a special adapter at the check-in desk.

The hotel location is amazing. It is just steps from the tram stop and two stops from the airport. A quick trip to the city center is possible. The staff were SUPER friendly.

The shower had no POWER at all. It was barely a dribble. I was unable to control the temperature. It would fluctuate between scaling hot and freezing cold.
