Überheiztes und hellhöriges Zimmer.
Cons:

Heizung nicht regelbar - überheiztes Zimmer. Zimmer sehr hellhörig. Kommen und Gehen anderer Gäste hört man sehr stark. Bei geöffneten Fenster Straßenlärm. Küchenausstattung sehr mager.

Ottima struttura
Pros:

Struttura eccellente, con fermata del bus molto vicina e numerosi ristoranti nei dintorni.
L’ambiente è pulito, accogliente e dotato di tutto il necessario per soggiorni di più notti.
Il sistema di check-in e check-out è comodo e spiegato in modo chiaro.
Abbiamo avuto bisogno di assistenza e, tramite email, il servizio è stato rapido ed efficiente.
Sicuramente torneremo!

angenehm, gerne wieder
Pros:

Bushaltestelle fast vor dem Haus.
Viel Grün in der Umgebung, Vogelgezwitscher
Strasse lebhaft, aber die Fenster dämmen die Geräusche gut.
Speisen und Getränke im selben Gebäude erhältlich

Cons:

Checkin hat letztlich gut geklappt, wir erhielten jedoch zuerst eine falsche Nummer.....
Eine freundliche Frau im Gebäude half bei der Kommunikation, die etwas schwer verständlich war....

Convenient, comfortable stay
Pros:

Fantastic 1-night stay. Location was very easy to find and being located by the university many public transit options. Self-checkin was quick and easy and staff was responsible. We were very surprised with how large the room was, very comfortable beds.

Cons:

A few things were a bit dated - but nothing to distract from the stay
