Convenient stay near transport hubs
spacious apartment ample space short walk
The apartment was spacious. The kitchen had an unexpected size. The master bedroom provided enough space for luggage. The hotel is a short walk from the FlixBus stop. The rail station is located in the northern part of the town.
I found some mold in the showers. There were also signs of age and wear. The entrance is only accessible by steps. This made it difficult for pram users and anyone with mobility issues. I consider this point important to solve.

Acceptable Stay with Some Disappointments
toilet roll shortage towel fee
The apartment location is convenient, with a short walk to the center. The bus stop is near the building.
I was disappointed by the lack of basic amenities. Only one small toilet roll was provided, and I had to buy more. I stayed multiple nights, and towel changes required an extra fee.

large kitchen luggage storage helpful staff
the apartment had a large kitchen. i liked that the master bedroom accommodated all my luggage for my vacation. the hotel has a luggage storage room for early arrivals. the front desk staff helped me with my luggage (i appreciated that!).
the hotel parking is not great, and it feels like a hidden cost. i found limited spaces for a lot of apartments.

slow stove poor dishwasher
I wasn't thrilled with a few things. the electric stove in the kitchenette was slow. It took ages to heat anything. also, the dishwasher didn't clean very well, leaving residue on the dishes. finally, they seemed to skimp on toilet paper. Providing only one small roll was a bit tight-fisted and inconvenient!!!
