This place was clean and quiet, so warm and comfy that we sat in the down stairs lounge to drink tea and coffee. I didn’t use the pool area but we looked in and people looked like they enjoyed the area. Has nice fitness area and snacks available to purchase if need be. Different breakfast for the two mornings that we were there for. I would definitely suggest this location and I’d return anytime.

The breakfast was good and was slightly different every day. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. I really liked that each queen size bed had 2 soft and 2 firm pillows. The staff was really friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

Micheal, the odor is not coming from the elevator. It is coming from the air intake value, and we are having a third party come in and investigate to try and solve this issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I loved that it was a 3 minute drive from my concert venue at the Germania Club. I loved that it was easy to access/leave without having to go deep into the city. It was in a quiet location, elevators, breakfast, a pool, all the good luxuries of a great hotel. Best of all, it was very clean.

Tv didn’t work, nor the phone when I tried calling the front desk. I went down and maintenance was gone for the day. The guy at the desk said he’d come up and look at it but never did.

We are sorry that the agent was not able to get to your room. The TV has to have the cable box turned on in order to work. We are sorry you weren't able to use it.
