Gerne wieder!
Pros:

Das Zimmer war ziemlich gross und es hatte alles, was man sich als Gast wünscht in dieser Preislage. Meinem Wunsch nach einem Zimmer auf der Rückseite des Gebäudes wurde entsprochen. Sehr gut fand ich die Keurig-Kaffeemaschine.

Cons:

Der Aufzug hat funktioniert, allerdings war dieser langsam und sehr laut, weil regelmässig ein lautes Gebimmel ertönte, was absolut unnötig ist.

Perfect for a short layover stay!
Pros:

De lokatie vlakbij de airport maar wel tussen winkels en restaurants

Cons:

Geen ontbijtbuffet wat ik van te voren wel wist. Het zou fijn zijn als ze deze service kunnen aanbieden in de toekomst.

Wir würden wiederkommen.
Pros:

Das Zimmer war sehr groß, die Betten wurden täglich gemacht und wir haben jeden Tag frische Handtücher bekommen.
Der Herr an der Rezeption war sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Leider etwas zu wenige und sehr enge Parkplätze, vor allem wenn man spät abends gekommen ist.
