amazing locationfriendly stafffresh espressoloud musicweak pressuredinner variety
The location is AMAZING. it is directly inside the theater passage! i could easily access both the central station and many restaurants. the breakfast was a highlight, with two types of salmon and fresh espresso. I really enjoyed the friendly staff.
I found the noise at night to be problematic. Dance clubs nearby were quite loud! it was difficult to sleep before 2 AM on friday and saturday nights. the shower pressure was also WEAK. i also thought the dinner variety was not what I expected.

minor issues

convenient locationshabby decorlack of wardrobe
the location was very convenient and right next to the tram and bus stop.
the dinner buffet decor felt quite old fashioned and a bit shabby. there was also a distinct lack of wardrobe space in the superior room i booked. i even requested room cleaning during my four-day stay, but no one ever came.

Excellent stay near the city center

excellent supperblack out curtainsgreat sound-proofinguseful coffee machine
The supper provided was wholesome and had many options. It included fresh bread, vegetables, salads, soup, and hummus. The lounge area, where supper is served, had beautiful decorations. The blackout curtains in my room worked effectively and I experienced good sound-proofing.
I noticed slight wear and tear in the shower rooms, suggesting only a superficial face-lift had been done recently.
