Good location; service available; sauna and breakfast ok. Hotel parking included in the price of the stay.The problem was wasps - the structure of the building makes it an excellent "hotel for pollinators". The cluster of pissed wasps in the bathroom was problematic - I had to keep the window closed and the bathroom was poorly ventilated, so the towels didn't dry. There was also a problem with the cold water pool next to the saunas.

For me, the hotel is in a great location because it is close to the office. If you want to be right in the city, the location may be suboptimal. The rooms are newly renovated and clean. However, the hotel itself is a bit older. All in all, I have nothing to complain about and I'm satisfied.

Nice & comfortable rooms.Although the floor & toilet are in desperate need of modernizing, the room seems to be fine with TV, AC & proper WiFi available.As an extra you get a locker, with a small mini bar for the drinks in the room which comes very handy.The reception guy was also really friendly & helpful.

Rooms are really great. But the hotel has very poor internet or rather, very outdated routers. We're talking about the WiFi 4 standard, which has been around since 2009! We have now arrived at WiFi 7! If the hotel is full, there will be no internet here. Because WiFi 4 can only serve very few devices at the same time. That's why no 5 stars!

Didn't expect much for a stopover but got one of the renovated rooms and had the best sleep in a long time! Great room, comfortable bed (would have liked to take the topper home with me 😅) free parking. What more could you want 👌🏼
