Categories

Cleanliness
8.6
Mostly reported as clean (clean rooms, smelled good, clean entrance and towels available), though pockets of musty or bad smells around the pool and occasional reports of ants or damp rooms lowered the score slightly.
Service
9.6
Consistently praised — reception/staff described as very friendly, helpful and accommodating across multiple reviews; several guests explicitly said staff were great or excellent.
Location
9.2
Multiple mentions of a good position and convenient location with ample parking; generally viewed positively by guests.
Room Quality
7.2
Several recurring issues: uncomfortable mattresses (dipping), poor lighting, noisy stairwells/hallways, A/C not adequate for some rooms, shower layouts (no door), dated decor and occasional loose fixtures — overall below expectation.
Amenities
7.8
On-site amenities exist (pool, gym, loft rooms, shuttle, pet-friendly info), but the pool area and gym received multiple complaints (pool too warm, flooring coming apart, pool/area needing upgrades; gym narrow with limited supplies). Shuttle reliability issues were reported once.
Value for Money
7
Mixed to negative on value — at least one guest called the price 'insane' and some room issues (comfort, amenities) reduce perceived value compared with expectations.
Food and Beverage
8.6
Breakfast was frequently described as good or adequate (many called the breakfast good or simple but fine), though there were criticisms about limited choices, poor eggs in one report, and runny gravy in another.
Overall Experience
10
Overall impression trends positive: many guests praise staff, cleanliness and location and explicitly say they'd stay or book again despite some room/amenity issues; the net experience is strongly positive in多数 reviews.

Pros:

The lady that checked us in was super nice and helpful

Cons:

Beds were so uncomfortable. The price was insane and we chose this place for the airport shuttle but we're told the shuttle would not get us there on time so we needed to change our plans.

The front desk staff were kind and helpful, however the room was extremely disappointing.
Pros:

We did not care for the breakfast. The eggs were terrible and choices were minimal.

Cons:

Our room was very poorly lit. It was dark and dreary. The mattress was uncomfortable - with both sides dipping towards the middle.

Freundlich und komfortabel, mit Pool
Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal an der Rezeption, zweistöckiges Zimmer, Pool, gutes amerikanisches Frühstück, Großzügigkeit bei der Ausgabe von Handtüchern u.a., auch immer viele Handtücher beim Pool

Cons:

Zimmer bräuchte Renovierung, Poolboden auch.
Bad riecht muffig, Lüftung hilft aber.
Kein Zimmerservice, wenn man sich nicht an der Rezeption meldet, dafür hat man aber immer diese Möglichkeit und wird auf Nachfrage gut mit allem Nötigen versorgt.
