Convenient and Comfortable Stay

quick access easy transportation breakfast included

The hotel is connected to the central station , made airport access quick. Transportation via trams and buses is easy given their stops are near the hotel entrance. The included breakfast at the nearby restaurant was good. I found it easy to ask staff for assistance.

I noticed the door did not automatically lock for about a minute after closing it.
