Stayed during peak season (week before Christmas) and paid peak pricing, but the experience did not match expectations. Check-in: Requested early check-in at 11:30am due to an early flight. Initially told to wait until 3:30pm, then repeatedly asked to wait until 4pm, even though guests arriving after us were given rooms. Eventually assigned another room after insisting. Room was not prepared for 3 adults and had to request housekeeping to add the extra bed. Housekeeping & Service: On the second day, despite placing the “clean room” sign, the room was not cleaned and towels were not changed. The sign was removed and kept inside the room, raising questions about what housekeeping actually did. At reception, responses were cold and dismissive, including being told it’s “hotel policy” not to clean rooms daily (not mentioned anywhere). When requesting fresh towels, we were asked to collect them ourselves from reception as staff was “busy.” Phones in rooms do not work, forcing multiple trips to reception. Rooms & Facilities: Rooms are very small, bathroom extremely cramped. Wi-Fi was slow, TV channels limited. Food: Breakfast spread is large but heavily meat- and bread-based. No rice or noodles. Items ran out on the second day and the buffet remained unchanged. Overall: Location is excellent and walkable, but service is inconsistent and often poor. Some staff were warm and helpful, others need better customer-handling training.

Disappointing stay. Heating didn’t work in that we couldn’t get the room warm. Fridge didn’t work. We put our son’s medication in the fridge as it needs to be refrigerated only to find in the morning that it was warm and now spoiled. Asked for a quiet room and was put next to the lift (also had noisy neighbors). Was only given one pillow per person and when asked for more pillows it was an ordeal. No phone in room to call reception. No answers to messages sent to the hotel. Room was tiny. Bathroom was tiny. For the price paid - over $550 USD I expected so much more. When I spoke to the lady upon checkout, she thought it was funny. Wish we picked another hotel. Avoid.

The room and location were great. Breakfast was filling. The only thing that let this accommodation down was check in. Our room was not ready by 4.00pm - check in time. When we asked why and what was the problem neither reception staff could leave any answer. We were'invisible' to them.They simply ignored us, even though we were standing at the counter.There were numerous people in this situation, the lobby was full. At no time was there an explanation - very frustrating. Finally when our room was available there was no apology and only a superficial welcome and run down to services and amenities. Staff need better training and there needs to be more staff during peak times.

Hotel is in a perfect location for pick-up to local attractions. Visitor center a 5 min walk, shopping mall across the street. Very modern, spotless rooms. Extremely helpful and friendly staff, they offer luggage storage in a locked room. Breakfast has a huge, quality selection and fully worth the 21EUR. Ate dinner at the restaurant and it was delicious. Definitely would stay here again.

Easy to get to from the airport. Clean and quiet. Restaurant meals were good. Breakfast good, but kept running out of options, which weren't replaced. A lot of what was supposed to be hot was cold. Shower was cold with no hot water on our first full day. Reported it but was just told they had been having problems! Overall we enjoyed our stay.

My room didn't have any opening windows, and seeing as we couldn't turn down the heating, it was ridiculously not. Staff did supply us with a fan when requested. Paying to park was a bit of a cheek. Check in process took way too long.
