Reviews
However, the parking fee of 22 euros for a day in the underground garage, even for hotel guests is too much of hidden costs! It is not international standard!
I booked a room at your hotel early this Christmas morning, but due to a system error, there was a double booking, which could have resulted in me being charged double. I called your hotel & in just a couple of mins the problem was completely solved in the best possible way!🤩 Thank you for being so accomodative❤️
In general I would recommend.
When I checked out, they said I have to pay for breakfast because I originally didn't pay? Why would you mark it on my key card holder saying I can when you're going to charge me in the end? Pretty shady. Then it took a while to charge me for breakfast and my uber that I reserved ended up canceling on me so from a 27 euros uber now I have to pay over 100 euros. If you want reliability, do NOT come here unless you're not going to the airport.
They said they don't know if they can get me a refund for the breakfast since it was their mistake. :)
