basic but adequate for a quick stop

limited space inconvenient 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.

convenient and clean!

tram stop clean environment public transport

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.

Adequate stay near the airport

tram stop easy access super staff friendly staff city center quick trip low shower power shower temperature control unstable temperature freezing cold temperature

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.
