good varietyroom cleaning serviceno service

the breakfast had a good variety of options.

The room cleaning service was a problem. i put the card out for service before 2 am, as instructed, but no one came. i then read the card more closely. It said to place the card out only if i wanted to opt out of service. i did that the next day, but still no one came.. i spoke to reception, and they noted it, but still no service was provided. for a long expo trip, this was disappointing.

Central Hotel with Excellent Amenities

modern roomcentral locationexcellent breakfastfriendly staff

The hotel room was very clean and modern. The location is central and close to the train station. I found the breakfast to be excellent (I especially enjoyed the fresh fruit). The hotel staff members were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

The parking space was not possible to reserve. This was quite disappointing, because there are far too few parking spaces for the hotel.

Facilities

9/10

The hotel offers bicycle storage, very practical for those traveling with bikes. The basement parking provides secure parking. The breakfast room is comfortable, and the buffet selection seems well-stocked and frequently replenished (great for a quick and easy start to the day).
