Clean and Comfortable

I found my room to be impeccably clean with all the appliances in great working order. The TV, phone, and hairdryer were functional, and I was pleased to have a mini-fridge to keep my drinks cool. The good Wi-Fi signal made it easy to stay connected during my stay.

Spacious Rooms with Views

I loved the spaciousness of my room, which came with a lovely balcony that provided a beautiful view. It was a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings. While it was a bit noisy at night due to the street, the great sound insulation of the doors helped mitigate that.

I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were cozy and had everything I needed, plus a good breakfast for the money. The air-conditioning provided added comfort. The service was mixed, with the staff being helpful and friendly but with some inconsistencies. The location was convenient for getting around, although slightly far from the port. The dining options were solid overall, offering a good mix of German and continental cuisine. The facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms had a weird smell initially, but were still better than many 3-star accommodations. On the bright side, they had a balcony and provided lovely bathroom products. The service was exceptional, with staff that were extremely helpful and available 24 hours a day. The location was perfect, right in the city center near shops and restaurants, making it easy to explore. However, the dining options were too basic and lacked variety. Despite this, the hotel offered great value for money.
