The hotel exudes a mix of charm and convenience. The lack of certain basic conveniences in the room, like a desk and night stands, was a bit inconvenient, but the staff promptly addressed any issues, showcasing their dedication to guest satisfaction. The interconnected room layout added a unique touch to the stay, making it a tad quirky yet functional.

I found the hotel to be a unique and quirky stay, although not entirely practical. The rooms had interesting designs but lacked a practical side, especially with no bathmat provided. The service was pleasant with a mix of niceness and some impatience. The location was a bit challenging to reach but safe and in a residential area. The dining experience, although a bit pricey, offered a great array of fruits and cheese. Overall, a mixed but interesting experience.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location was convenient for my needs, and the staff was welcoming and helpful. However, there were some issues with noise in the room and the temperature control. The rooms were a bit awkwardly laid out but were clean and ready for us. The service was excellent, but there were some shortcomings in addressing specific queries. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering a wide range of meal choices at a fair price. The facilities were well-equipped and functional, providing a comfortable stay.

The hotel is located in a business area with few dining options nearby. The rooms are not hugely practical, and unfortunately, there is no air conditioning available. The service provided little to no assistance, making it challenging to locate the hotel. The location is a bit far from the city center but is conveniently close to tram and bus stops. The dining experience offered a good variety of food. The facilities are functional but basic.

Staying on the 11th floor with an automatically sliding window overlooking Zurich was an incredible experience. The rooms were well-equipped with all necessary facilities but lacked basic conveniences like a desk, night stands, and shelves in the room and shower cabin. The service was extremely helpful and made my solo vacation memorable, despite being in a quiet business area. Dining was good but could have more options, and the facilities were satisfactory overall.

My stay was simply delightful! The hotel had beautifully tidy rooms with lovely extra touches, like my son's teddies set up on the bed, which was perfect for us. However, the only downside was the lack of air conditioning. The service was exceptional with staff who were not only amazingly pleasant but also extremely knowledgeable about the area, making it easy to get around even though the location was a bit further from the city. The dining options were diverse and satisfying, especially the hot food choices in the morning. Overall, a wonderful experience with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers a great view from the corner room with two separate beds, and it is clean and cozy to sleep within. The service combined with perfect service and very friendly staff was extremely kind and available at any time for any query. The location, although small and a bit far from the Center in a residential/office area, is open to the room. The dining experience in accommodation was quite good if you like fruits and various cheese. Overall, a great value for money stay in a convenient location, with friendly staff and clean, cozy rooms.
