The breakfast left much to be desired, it was meager. The scrambled eggs tasted quite odd. Rubbery springs come to mind! my room lacked a mini-fridge! What am I supposed to do with my leftovers?

convenient and comfortable stay

short walkconvenient locationautomatic control
the hotel is conveniently located near the airport terminal 1, easily accessible by a short walk. trams offer quick transfers to terminal 2. also, i found the proximity to the tram station for travel to the city center to be very convenient. the kind staff at the front desk gave me clear directions on how to reach the city center and local destinations.
the room temperature felt cold. i learned the control is automatic, maintaining a cooling environment even at 19c. i could not turn on the heating system so it was a bit uncomfortable.
