underground parking easy transportation tasty breakfast many options accomodating staff noisy room barely working ac no shampoo
I found underground parking very convenient. It made the transportation easy. Breakfast had lots of options available and was very tasty. The staff was so accomodating.
My room, facing the street, was a little noisy at night. The AC barely worked. I wish there was shampoo in the room given what I paid.

friendly staff spacious room basement parking missing shampoo weak ac basic breakfast
I really enjoyed the spaciousness of the quadruple room, it accommodated my family well. the staff seemed very friendly. They were always ready to help with directions. parking in the basement was convenient. i found it easy to get around the city with the tram stop right outside.
the absence of shampoo was disappointing considering the price i paid, it reminded me of a basic necessity overlooked. the ac barely worked, leaving the room somewhat warm. the breakfast was quite basic, without much variety.

good stay overall

underground carpark adv bikes
the staff combined our bookings without problems. we managed to get spaces in the underground carpark. we fit both bikes easily in one space, you could fit four fully loaded adv bikes in a space.
the hotel does not have air conditioning. the hotel suggests using a fan. the noise interferes with sleep and opening the windows brings mosquitoes and street noise.
Rooms

rooms are spacious with ample parking and greenery. hotel is located right next to a bus stop, a short walk to town. it is an convenient location with great benefits.
