i found a couple of issues . there was no kettle in the room so i had to go to the lobby for hot water. the bathroom also had a design flaw the shower had a half-glass panel causing water to spill everywhere. the drainage wasn't great either

luggage spacereally good locationbroken radiatorold hotel
i stayed in a family suite. it was really good! the location has easy access to intercity trains, metro, trams, and the airport bus. also, they have good space to store luggage, a big advantage because our flight was later at night.
The radiator in my room was broken. it still worked! the window handle was also broken. i found the hotel to be quite old, something you can't see well in the photos.

the location was very convenient near the train station and the underground.
The room was quite small (i felt a bit claustrophobic, honestly) and needed some updating. There wasn't much space for clothes or other belongings, and the furniture seemed a bit worn.
