Cleanliness
6.6
Multiple guests reported poor cleaning (stains on furniture, hair in bathroom, tea left in kettle); a few reviews praised exceptionally clean rooms, resulting in a mixed-to-negative cleanliness score.
Service
9.4
Staff frequently described as friendly and helpful (mentions in several languages); some service lapses for pet owners (no water bowl, indifferent treatment) but overall service sentiment is strongly positive.
Location
9.6
Consistently praised: very close to the airport, easy S-Bahn access to city centre, adjacent to a large park — location is one of the hotel's strongest points.
Room Quality
7.8
Rooms described as spacious and with good beds by many, but there are reports of damages to walls/trim, a hard extra bed/sofa and some cramped storage — overall moderately positive with occasional issues.
Amenities
8.6
Facilities like spa and gym included for guests and a hotel bar are noted positively; parking and minibar/shops are available but often described as expensive or limited.
Value for Money
6.6
Several guests felt price did not match experience (cleanliness and added charges like high parking and pet fees); value perception is below average.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast is repeatedly praised (good selection, tasty), and the hotel bar/beer gets positive mentions; some complaints about high prices and occasional poor-quality/diluted juices.
Overall Experience
8
Many guests enjoyed the location, staff and breakfast, but recurring cleanliness and extra-fee complaints tempered the overall experience to slightly above target.

Würde ich nicht wieder buchen
Pros:

Die Lage war gut, man hat ein Parkhaus vom Hotel. Beim Frühstück gab es eine gute Auswahl

Cons:

Das Zimmer war leider sehr schlecht gesäubert. Flecken auf Möbeln, Haare im Bad und Flecken am Spiegel. Staub überall und fleckige Handtücher. Leider sehr enttäuschend
