Great stay if you don't use your own car and looking for a self catering hotel.
Pros:

The rooms were great, and I liked the setup. It allowed for self-catering with a kitchen setup. It was very modern with the clean finishes. Although it was self catering, the room service was still there to clean my room daily.

Cons:

The couch was a bit old; it looked like it was overused. There is very limited parking in the area; you will struggle to find any, especially during the day. Even when you find parking, you need to pay hourly fees out of your own pocket.

I was not happy with my stay because the hotel was not clean, and the security did not seem as strict or reliable as we
Pros:

The location was perfect

Cons:

The property wasn’t clean, the couch had a stench and the rooms looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in weeks, you had to look for parking outside the building because they don’t have parking, we had to walk with our bags from the parking to the hotel and it was drizzling.

Stay was okay but not practical for long term to medium term stay
Pros:

It was very central and in a walkable safe area

Cons:

The building and rooms are not really made for comfort. The building has an unpleasant smell because there’s no air circulation and the rooms are just built without consideration. There is no mirror to get ready or a long mirror. The basin is very small atleast 10cm so can’t get ready there either. It is aesthetically pleasing but largely impractical and cleaning staff don’t clean on Sundays which they don’t tell you until you ask. Rooms don’t have laundry baskets which is incredibly inconvenient when stay longer than a day

Dangerous location with a hotel that lies & miss sells rooms which do not exist. Avoid booking at all costs.
Pros:

Absolutely nothing

Cons:

Can we write an essay?

Sehr enttäuschend.
Pros:

Die Lage war gut, nachts muss man in dieser Straße etwas aufpassen aber grundsätzlich sonst zentral und Nähe vieler guter Restaurants.

Cons:

Leider war es enttäuschend. Beim Check-in mussten wir unser Gesicht scannen und einen Fingerabdruck abgeben (!) angeblich aus Sicherheitsgründen. Darüber wurden wir vorher jedoch nicht informiert. Wir wollten das eigentlich nicht machen, hatten aber keine andere Möglichkeit. Das Personal war dabei zudem unfreundlich. Zusätzlich mussten wir eine Kaution zahlen.
Im Zimmer: Das Bett war zu kurz und die Kissen deutlich zu dick und obwohl wir nach zwei Handtüchern gefragt hatten, bekamen wir nur eins, und weder im Kühlschrank noch am Wassertank gab es Trinkwasser. Außerdem war es sehr hellhörig und wir wurden nachts oft geweckt. Die Einrichtung ist natürlich Geschmackssache, wir fanden das Zimmer jedoch eher dunkel und ungemütlich. Insgesamt leider keine gute Erfahrung.
