Good hotel, excellent staff
Pros:

The breakfast was excellent.

Cons:

No water bottles in the room. I had to buy from either their tuck shop which was expensive and then got it from walmart. Not great when you stay for 6 days.

Mehr schlecht als recht, für den Preis viel zu teuer. 
Pros:

Das Personal und das Bett.

Cons:

Die Aussicht war schlecht und es war sehr laut in der Nacht. Und dann war mein Zimmer in der Nähe vom Aufzug. Die Ausstattung der Möbel ist alt. Das Bast wirkt am Anfang schön, aber dann, wenn man mal länger Zeit darin verbringt, ist es nicht mehr so gut. Und die Klimaanlage konnte man nicht einstellen. Sehr schade, es war zu kalt. Für eine Nacht okay. Die Zimmer brauchen ein Upgrade.

Good but they need to fix the lift
Pros:

It was close to shops, it had a shuttle bus and the station was relative close

Cons:

They are having issues with the lift and took some days at least 10 to 20 min just waiting for the lift
