I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The staff was really nice and the hotel was very clean, especially the exercise room. The breakfast was fantastic, and the amenities made my stay quite enjoyable. However, I wasn't too fond of the translucent sliding bathroom doors and the room had a view of a parking garage, which was disappointing.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, with a few ups and downs. The rooms were simple and comfortable, which I appreciated, and the fast Wi-Fi was a plus. However, the bathroom setup was a bit odd and I found the noise levels from neighboring rooms somewhat bothersome. The breakfast situation was confusing but turned out to be a nice surprise. Overall, it's a solid choice for a business stay, but it could use some improvements in certain areas.

The hotel is modern and well-maintained, situated right next to a beautiful nature reserve which is perfect for relaxing or taking a walk. However, I faced issues with unexpected charges and lack of room cleaning during my stay, which made the experience less enjoyable overall. While it was conveniently located near the train station, the noise from the highway was a downside.
