convenient transportationpoor mini barlimited selection
The room was close to local transportation. Tram and bus are readily available. A shuttle to the airport is also available for early flights.
I found that the mini bar was not great. After I voiced my concern, it was only stocked once with a small juice bottle, a tomato juice bottle, two beers, and two soft drinks. No spirits were available. That seemed rather stingy.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

free mini barinsufficient lightingmissing outlets
The hotel offers a convenient free mini bar. It met my basic needs.
The room was not adequately prepared. One of the main lamps did not function, which left the room with insufficient lighting. There were also no outlets near the bed, despite the listing claiming their presence, this was frustrating.

The hotel offers a free shuttle bus from airport to the hotel. I paid five Swiss francs for the shuttle bus from the hotel back to the airport the next morning. This commute between cities was very convenient. The location is great for a stopover.
I noticed the water did not drain immediately from the washbowl. It took five to seven minutes to drain completely. I had to wait to use the washbowl and bathing place.
