The staff spoke very good english. Free water and coffee were available in reception. The room seemed spacious. Andreas on the staff was very friendly.
The price did not match the available amenities. The bathroom was a very small space. The toilet was jammed next to the sink. The shower was also very small and lacked a shelf.
