8/10 Very good

The hotel was nice. The regular breakfast starting at 7 am is amazing.The early breakfast is very limited. The hotel advertised free airport shuttle, but in reality they offer a shuttle/taxi from the airport only. If you are leaving and need to go from the hotel to the airport they don't offer transportation. The free airport shuttle is offered in one direction only. Overall a good experience.

8/10 Very good

The hotel is good , nice and clean . Only 2 things make me upset : first they have 1 musical and 2 news chanels ... TV is very important I don't understand why they have just a few programs . : Second I don't know did they accept pets but next to my room was a dog , barking all night , so I can't sleep . Just fix the TV programs and don't let pets and the hotel WILL be Exellent ! Kind regards!

6/10 Good

We were in room 110 and the room was quite expensive . Outside the room was a large amount of ventilation equipment that was going off and on all night. My wife is a light sleeper and could not sleep. Told staff in morning on checkout and was not to bothered. Really was poor experience and no sleep left is with a very uncomfortable trip home . Major problem,, but the facilities and dining facilitate excellent, but because of the no sleep and the staff not caring will not be returning

4/10 Fair

Air conditioning was working only in heating mode. We were not warned about this during check in. There is no window to get freah air in the room and because was pretty warm we turn the airconditioning in cooling mode setting the thermostat to 20 degC before going to bed. We woke up at midnight sweating - thermostat was showing 27 degC. Turned off the airconditioning and temperature in rhe room dropped to 24 degC at 4:00 a mm I will not recommend using this hotel unless he feels comfortable at 24 degC with no fresh air in the room.
Ivan, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The hotel itself is okay. However, there is nothing to eat around the area at 7pm on a Saturday night. The hotel's restaurant was closed, because they had 2 weddings that evening. Never mind that there were other guests in the hotel who were left with nothing to eat for dinner, since the closest restaurant was a 15min walk down the highway. In addition, they placed us on a floor with some of the wedding party. We didn't sleep all night! We had a whole day of flights ahead of us and wanted to stay at a hotel to get a good night's rest. Instead, we slept about 3 hours, constantly being woken up by the noise in the hallway. We understand that people will be noisy during a wedding, but perhaps don't place other guests on the same floor! The person at the front desk was nice and friendly, but he himself was surprised that there was no restaurant available for us. Overall, one of the worst experiences at a hotel I've had. Will not return and will make sure I warn everyone I know.

Nicht besonders gutes Hotel, positiv Lage zum Flughafen..

10/10 Exceptional

Another excellent stay!!

We always use this hotel, not only for its convenience for the airport, ( it is only 5 stops on the meteo from the airport), but because of the friendliness and professionalism of the staff, who simply can't do enough for you. This time, we also used their long term parking facilities, which were very competitive, compared to the regular off-site airport carparks .

6/10 Good

If there are no windows to open, please insert air from outside, you know, like the big ones do. I hope they are not saving from electric bill, not having the air insertion and filtering, I couldn't breath in the room, I couldn't fall asleep, then I felt more tired after "sleeping", what is wrong with them, even the bathroom had mold due to stale air

6/10 Good

Glad it was just 1 night

The lobby was freezing. There is no hotel bar - you have to go and request drinks from the restaurant. And the bedroom walls were very thin, meaning we could hear conversation and laughter from the neighbouring room. And the free airport transfer is TO the hotel, not to the airport.
