Just OK, Some Issues
missing viewbroken coffee machine
My stay had some problems. The promised city view from my Executive King Room Renovated never looked. I was on a low floor, so I mostly saw a wall. the in-room coffee machine did not work at all. I reported it, but no one came to fix it, so I skipped my morning coffee.

faulty thermostatloud ice machine
The shower thermostat in my room was faulty. The maintenance worker who inspected it claimed it was fine, needing temperature adjustment. The ice machine on the other side of the wall was too loud (especially at night).
I found the hotel very clean upon arrival. my room had a fridge and a kettle. the staff were very helpful. They even got the kids hot chocolate! it is a short walk from the main train station.
the music and street noise went on well past midnight. the noise comes from surrounding restaurants and the hotel's restaurant (my room was directly above it). the music starts up again before 7:00 when they open for breakfast.

the hotel's location was acceptable for exploring the area.
the fridge in my room was completely useless, it did not work at all. staff came twice to address it, but there was no resolution (i had medication that needed to be kept cold). the tv's software was also frustrating because i couldn't cast to it or use hdmi inputs.
