fantastic city stay

presented roomshopping mallcontinental optionshard-bass restaurant
the hotel room was large and nicely presented with all amenities. it included a safe and television (i felt secure). next to the hotel was a shopping mall with a cinema and supermarket. the breakfast included both hot and continental options.
the noise from outside was problematic for me. i should have investigated the location in more detail, but it did not match the "academic" atmosphere. most of the noise came from a hard-bass restaurant nearby, street noises bothered me.

fantastic hotel, i'm already planning my return!

The location is awesome! it is a short walk to great restaurants and shops. the staff were friendly! i especially loved the underground parking. It felt super safe, even with a fully packed car. breakfast had so many options. It was an amazing start to the day.
I did notice the air conditioning wasn't cooling as much as i would have liked. It was a tad too warm for my liking, but it wasn't a deal-breaker!
