Guest Who Stayed Here Said
Reality check
The 'seasonal AC' catches many off guard during unseasonably warm shoulder months, leading to stuffy, sleepless nights.
- You are traveling with a family or group and need multiple bathrooms
- You want to cook your own breakfast or do laundry in your room
- You need a 24/7 reception but don't care about a concierge or bellhop
Cleanliness & Maintenance
8.5
- Housekeeping: Reliable but infrequent (every 2 days). Don't expect hotel-style turndown.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally sparkling, though some grout in older 'Standard' units shows age.
- Maintenance: Solid. Paint is fresh in Deluxe units; some scuffs on walls in high-traffic Standard units.
- Linens & towels: Clean and white, but standard hotel grade—not luxury Egyptian cotton.
- Odors & scents: Neutral. No heavy perfumes, but hallways can smell like neighbors' cooking dinner.

FAQ & Hidden tips
Everything you actually want to know before you book.
Is there a gym or pool?
No. There is no fitness center or pool on-site. You'll need to buy a day pass at a nearby gym.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It is available for ~€18 at the partner restaurant 'Antré' on the ground floor, but you're better off at a nearby cafe.
How often is the room cleaned?
Every 2 days for a light refresh (trash/towels). Full cleaning with linen change only happens for stays longer than 7 days.
Is the parking expensive?
Yes. The on-site underground garage is approx €32/night. It's convenient but pricey compared to public lots further away.
Can I control the AC?
Only in summer (June-Oct). The building manages the switch between heating and cooling centrally, so you cannot cool your room in winter/spring.
Is it safe at night?
Yes, the area is very busy and well-lit. The building has 24/7 security and CCTV.
