Saw the review saying the breakfast was gd but to me it was boring. Same food, toaster only toast 1 side of the bread. The cakes is dry. Dont noe why too many sweet sauces on the table. We bk for pick up tru and fro fr the airport. The mgr said to wait outside gate given and see the sign. Reached there but no signs of the company nor our names. Had to ask pple but no one noes! At last I show the pple my email fr Mr Ebru then someone shout at 1 guy and he acknowledge us (our name). Sigh. He was too busy chatting with his friends! We wasted 15mins looking and searching! Plus and minus its take us 25 mins before we depart fr the airport! Should of take outside transport fr which cost Euro 50 instead of fr the htl. Lesson learn.

The hotel is in an excellent location, the tram runs past outside but no other traffic. The staff were lovely and very helpful. I would call it a rather boutique hotel… My room on the 6th floor was great, nice and spacious and pretty comfortable with a fridge and kettle. There was underfloor heating which couldn’t be controlled and an AC unit that wasn’t operating for AC as I stayed in March. The room was very hot and therefore windows had to be fully open for some ventilation. Unfortunately, through no fault of the hotel, there were some building renovations being undertaken next door which were very noisy between 08:30 and 19:00 which is fine if you’re out at these times. Breakfast was okay but was complimentary so very welcome. Attached restaurant had great variety and as throughout, very friendly and attentive staff. Overall, I had a lovely stay.
