Perfectly good hotel
Pros:

Breakfast was very good, the room comfortable and the location is convenient for connections to the airport.

Cons:

There was no wi-fi in my room and after considerable hassle they ended up giving me another room - staff were nice enough but clearly not trained or empowered to sort out this kind of problem

Another pleasant stay with the niu
Pros:

I stay at the Niu Hotel in other cities before so I tend to find this chain in any city I visit

Cons:

Nothing serious it’s just your coffee from the coffee maker for the breakfast is pretty strong and at some point it’s hard to drink it up without adding more milk

Für mich die Stammresidenz in Berlin
Pros:

War zum 4. Mal hier: Ich finde, man hat das eh schon sehr gute Hotel noch ein wenig verbessert, beispielsweise ist das Frühstücksbuffet um ein paar sinnvolle Komponenten (Ingwer Shot) erweitert worden.
Ansonsten wirklich ein tolles Hotel, das vor allem durch Sauberkeit besticht.
Meines Erachtens sind es zudem kleine Details, wie dass man einen Chromecast fähigen Fernseher besitzt.
Ich hatte dieses Mal ein Zimmer zum benachbarten Bürogebäude, was nochmal leiser war als zur S Bahnbrücke.

Solides Hotel
Pros:

Für den Besuch gute Lage

Cons:

Leider konnte die Garage nur mit Karte bezahlt werden, der Vorgang hat im Hotel nicht funktioniert und eine hilfreiche Alternative wurde nicht angeboten!
