Reviews
Unfortunately, because of this, people from the drug scene also hang around in the area, but that's sadly the case in every major city.
At the hotel itself, however, there are absolutely no problems. Everything is clean and the staff is very friendly.
Has its Own small parkinggarage but also possible to park in a big garage.
Great breakfast with a lot of choice. Al in al a great affortable hotel
The front desk guy was more than helpful given my arrival circumstances and even changed my room, as requested, and explained to me all of the differences between my initial booking and what options I would have.
They have a bar in the lobby however it opens in the afternoon.
The breakfast and dinning area are on a completely different floor which makes it even more accommodating.
They have amenities however they have to be requested at the front desk, slippers, grooming kit, shoehorn, etc.
They have a umbrella rental stand at the exit, making a great feature for those pesky weather moments.
At breakfast they have more than enough options from which to choose, however I would have liked to be told about the separate breakfast menu which is available on request, such as suny side fried egg and pancakes.
The mini-fridge in the rooms do not cool anything at all and might as well not have existed.
Since I have diabetes and need to keep my medicine cold, it was an issue.
Luckily, the staff accomodated my needs by keeping my medicine in the fridge at the lobby bar. But I wonder if they could have handled 10 diabetics at once.
All the being said, the service was very good.
Special note to Christian, who was very solicit, polite and fast at attending my every request.
