It would be a great hotel except for very basic problems. Toilets do not flush well. The heat is either blasting or off. No control of temperature. They have that old UK separate hot and cold faucets. It's a small room in addition.

Room heat could not be turned off and staff couldn’t help. Room situated right over the garbage bins, which were in use, loudly, through much of the night.

We stayed in the part of the hotel that was stairs only on 4th floor. Our room had a large black stain all over the carpet. The water didn’t heat quickly for a shower (you are advised to wait 15 minutes), and everyone on staff was super sick and coughing all over. The worst part is the concierge / front desk advised us to park in a car lot that she said would be open at 6, and it was closed until 8 am! We had to be at airport by 8 am and had to call the emergency car park line and pay 50 Euros to get it out! We should have looked closely at the signs, but also trusted our hotel’s concierge. The only amazing part of our stay were the wonderful staff in the restaurant who made us an early breakfast to go and actually offered to problem solve our car problem when the concierge did nothing.

Room itself clean but tired, would have been nice a few years ago. Bathroom showing its age, mouldy sealant around sink and cold water tap in bath doesnt work..shower was good and powerful. Dont let this put you off as you dont spend long in̈ the room, its a three star, with a little investment could be four.
