Accueil pas professionnel et insolent
Pros:

L’architecture

Cons:

L’accueil parfaitement impoli et insolent, le check-in qui a pris 1 heure (!) alors que notre réservation était confirmée depuis des semaines, la climatisation défectueuse par temps de canicule (41 degrés dehors, 30 dans les chambres), le spa fermé car hors service,…

Teleurstellende en veel te dure ervaring
Pros:

Prachtig gebouw en centraal gelegen. Bar op dak was tof met vriendelijk personeel.

Cons:

Kleine kamers en 1 had mobiele airco met slang naar buiten. Krappe douche en smal bed. In- en uitchecken duurde te lang.

Cons:

The service at the rooftop bar was disappointing. We sat there for a long time without anyone attending to us. There were two or three staff members just chatting with each other and completely ignoring us.

Pros:

Lage, Nahe der U,S-Bahn und ringsrum Geschäfte, Restaurant, Kiosk nahe der Innenstadt. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr zuvorkommend, kleine Reparatur wurde sofort ausgeführt. Frühstück hat uns der Cafe im Zimmer ausgereicht, da wir langschläfer sind haben wir das BrunchFrühstück im Haus nicht benötigt. Danke für den schönen Aufenthalt.
