Parking note. Problematic — No parking available directly at the hotel; guests must use paid parking 350m away in a restricted zone with time limits, making car access inconvenient and costly.

Generally spacious with good showers and excellent water pressure; some reports of leaky shower bases, poor hot water pressure, and loud sliding doors

Never mentioned; assumed adequate but not highlighted
Breakfast
Extensive and well-regarded daily buffet with sweet and savory options; skews heavily toward salty items; pastries and croissants notably absent; very good value

Local knowledge

Request a street-side room to avoid bar noise from the rear of the building, which can be loud until after midnight on weekends
Leave your bags at reception before check-in (3pm) starting around noon—staff will notify you when your room is ready, sometimes as early as 12pm
Uber from the airport costs only €16 (~£9-10); much cheaper and easier than taxis
