A little out of the city but once we had worked out tram stops worked well for us. Comfortable clean room, just what we needed. We parked at a park and ride to avoid costly hotel parking and emissions fee. Worked out €30 for 48 hours rather than €50 at hotel.

I had a great stay, short walk away from the university. The only fault would be the showerhead that was nonetheless functional but in a sad state. Will be good to change it out to good quality and new ones.

1. Great service from start to finish. 2. Good food. 3. Room was smaller than expected for the price 4. Public transport was a 850m to 1km away which makes it difficult during the rainy winters. 5. Should change the rugs for sure, they either are dirty or look dirty, I am sure the hotel can get betters rugs.

For a Best Western Plus it was just OK. Unable to lock shower head it kept sliding down. Bath tub was very slippery & dangerous for older guest. Last night our refrigerator was not restocked as promised. Reluctant to go back to that hotel.

Ich hatte ein tolles, geräumiges Zimmer mit einem sehr bequemen Bett. Am Wochenende war es ruhig, auch nachts. Nur die Baugeräusche am Montagmorgen waren etwas störend, da hätte ich mir einen Hinweis gewünscht. Das Frühstück am Sonntag war hervorragend, auch etwas später gab es noch eine große Auswahl und die Speisen waren frisch und warm - allein die 28 Euro p. P. sind mE etwas hoch, wenngleich durchaus gerechtfertigt. Ich würde wieder ein Zimmer dort buchen.

Der Aufenthalt im Hotel war insgesamt sehr angenehm. Zimmer, Service und Ausstattung waren durchweg überzeugend. Allerdings fiel ein starker, unangenehmer Geruch im Eingangsbereich sowie in den Aufzugsvorräumen auf jeder Etage auf – insbesondere vor den Türen, die zu den Zimmern führen. Der Geruch erinnerte an ein Problem mit der Kanalisation und trübte leider den ansonsten positiven Gesamteindruck.

Rigtig fint til prisen. God morgenmad.

Meget fine værelser og generelt et pænt hotel. Vi havde booket to værelser til i alt fem personer (to voksne, tre børn 4-10 år). Vi var lidt overraskede over at der ikke var en ekstra opredning på det ene værelse. Vi fik at vide at det var standard procedure når man havde børn med og at man skulle skrive en besked til dem hvis man ønskede ekstra seng. Denne info havde været meget rar at få. Der var dog ikke flere senge til rådighed. Det gik okay, men én voksen og to børn i en dobbelt seng var lidt trangt og derfor med frygt for at der ville falde en ud af sengen. Der var god service, med personale der også talte engelsk. Fin morgenmad og alt i alt rigtig godt til prisen.
