Pros:

The room was comfortable and did the job for a night

Great location right next to the tram station. Big supermarket downstairs. Plenty of bars and restaurants within easy walking distance. And a spacious underground parking lot.

Cons:

No fan or AC so was a rather sticky night.

The reception isn't 24 hours either so make sure you have what you need before they leave for the day.

Einfach nur schlecht!
Pros:

Zimmer war sauber. Ansonsten gab es nichts positives

Cons:

Das Zimmer lag direkt an der Straße. Bei geöffnetem Fenster war an Schlaf kaum zu denken, da jede vorbeifahrende Straßenbahn deutlich zu hören war und man sogar die Erschütterungen im Zimmer gespürt hat. Da das Fenster wegen des Lärms praktisch nicht geöffnet werden konnte, wurde das Zimmer sehr warm und unangenehm.

Außerdem wurde uns vorab schriftlich ein Beistellbett zugesagt, das bei unserer Ankunft jedoch nicht im Zimmer vorhanden war. Ab 22 Uhr war leider auch niemand mehr erreichbar, sodass das Problem nicht mehr gelöst werden konnte.

Insgesamt war der Aufenthalt aufgrund dieser Mängel enttäuschend.

Goed hotel parkeren niet ideaal
Pros:

Het in en uitchecken verliep soepel en de ligging.

Cons:

De parkeergarage. Er had meer informatie mogen zijn dat als je een SUV heb met dakkoffer je hier niet kan parkeren. Dit heeft tot extra parkeerkosten geleden.
