Depending on your room location, this could wildly swing from one to five stars. Originally I was given a corner junior suite on the 5th floor (6th floor for Americans). It smelled musty and of some sort of plastic-like chemical. When I stepped into a pool of water where the carpet met the bathroom floor, that might have explained why.
Since the hotel was fully booked, I then wound up on the 1st floor facing the city. The room itself was a good size (great long desk!), but the tram that curved directly in front of the hotel actually shook the floor and gave off a loud low rumble. Sleep was only possible when they stopped for the night. This room was also dark and super cold; I should have ignored the "A/C is inactive in heating season" since this also seemed to give off heat.
The next day, I asked to move and as there was more availability, wound up on the 8th floor facing the train station and next to the breakfast area. Much better and a completely different experience! Super quiet, although to keep the window open, I had to prop it behind the (now newer) TV. The room would get too hot otherwise. (In this case, the A/C was more like a fan, which you would need to mask the breakfast room and people running down the hallway.) Loved watching the trains quietly zoom in and out.
Other than the panoramic view, breakfast was the worst I've had in quite a bit of European hotel traveling. The scrambled eggs were either runny or dried out and gray, and always cold. The only other hot items were sausages and boiled eggs. No gluten-free bread when I asked. Had to go to the grocery store to get some to use.
Five stars for location and upper floor rooms. One star for breakfast and lower floor rooms. So I guess this is a solid three. If you choose this hotel, get the highest level room possible and skip breakfast if you have to pay for it. read more
