Pros:

Clean and quiet.

Cons:

The staff in the evening are unfriendly, especially the ones at the bar. Annoyed by the job he's supposed to do such as taking an order. Also there is no free toothbrush despite it being written in the room explicitly.

Bardzo dobry hotel budżetowy
Pros:

Przyzwoity budżetowy hotel. Wszystko praktycznie nowe, Czysto, bardzo miła i pomocna obsługa na recepcji. Można wygodnie zostawić walizki (mieliśmy pociąg po południu więc walizki zostały na recepcji a podjechaliśmy po nie później. Całkiem dobre śniadania - może na pierwszy rzut oka nie wyglądają na jakieś Wow! ale tak naprawdę wszystko co potrzeba jest. Uliczkę obok są restauracje w tym świetna włoska (hotel też oferuje swoją restaurację.

Cons:

Hotel jest około 10-15 minut spacerem od metra. Pomimo że łóżka są zsunięte to są dwa materace więc wiadomo - szpara pomiędzy nimi.

It was more like a motel but advertised as hotel.
Pros:

The location as it was close by the event that I was attending

Cons:

The rooms didn’t have the very basics like glasses to take water or water cooker (not even asking for a coffee machine!).
The bed shits were super low quality and coarse, the pillows super cheap and uncomfortable. Couldn’t really get proper sleep both nights I stayed there.
Most of the staff were unfriendly and looked as if they are pissed all the time for unknown reasons.
Overall very uncomfortable and unrestful stay for me and wouldn’t consider it again.

Pros:

Snídaně byla fajn a plně dostačující (možná to chtělo jen více ovoce). Pokoje byly v pořádku, čisté a komfortní. Parking v okolních ulicích byl dostačující (naštěstí byla neděle). Personál byl milý a nápomocný.

Bruno Mars en een weekendje Berlijn
Pros:

Hotel wat prima geschikt is voor een weekend Berlijn. Airco's werken goed op een van de heetste dagen van het jaar. Bedden zijn prima en dat geldt ook voor de hygiëne. Faciliteiten zijn voldoende. Vriendelijk en efficiënt werkend personeel. Op een paar honderd meter loopt de Spree waar je mooi kunt wandelen. Kortom een prima hotel voor een paar dagen Berlijn.

Cons:

Hotel kent geen parkeergelegenheid. In de buurt van het hotel kun je gratis parkeren maar dan moet je wel op zoek naar een parkeerplaats.

Pros:

Skvělí personál, zpracováni detailů restaurace, recepce a vybavení pokoje . Snídaně až na pár věcí skvělá!

Cons:

Snídaně byla fajn, chyběl větší výběr uzenin, míchané vajíčka 🍳 - hotel používá tzv. Vaječnou směs - škoda, čerstvá míchaná vajicka by byla lepší 🙏😁

Pros:

Zimmer top, sehr schön mit der Klimaanlage, Aber zu wenig Parkplätze. Wir hatten Glück.

Cons:

Frühstück zu teuer, vorallem für kinder. Die ja nicht viel essen. Hätten gerne im hotel gefrühstückt. Aber 84 Euro für mich und mein Kind, der nur 1 Brötchen isst und ich auch nicht mehr. Das ist heftig.
