Unser Zimmer war ausreichend gross. Das Bad war ok. Der Schrank hatte nur eine Ablage und 4 Bügel. Wir haben viele Sachen im Koffer gelassen. Es gab einen französischen Balkon. Das war für uns toll, ist aber nicht bei allen Zimmern so. Ein Safe steht kostenlos zur Verfügung. Ganz toll ist der Frühstücksraum in der 7. Etage. Rundumblick. Das Frühstück selbst ist auch gut. Aber ohne frischem Obst. Haben wir uns selbst im Laden gekauft. Wir waren schon mehrfach dort und kommen auch wieder. Die Metro und Tramp sind fußläufig erreichbar. Das ist uns für unsere Ausflüge wichtig. Auch die Fahrt zum Flughafen kann in Eigenregie stattfinden.

The stay at the hotel was pleasant but the staffs at the reception are glueless about everything, if we wanted some information about things around and tours they did not have a glue about it due to language barrier. All the attractions and bazaars are not within walking distance, we had to either get a taxi or the tram to get to it.
