Works for the price. Some reviews are overly showing this in bad light, but it's close to a railway station, so easy for transportation. The area is slightly shady but there are kids playing around and it's still very safe

Horrific

We arrived. The door to our room was wide open. Bag of garbage and dirty sheets by the door. Sink dirty with toothpaste spit. Mattress dirty. No sheets. No one around to speak with. No response to email. No response to phone call. We then booked at the Marriott Courtyard and that hotel was amazing. Very disappointed. Also wrote hotels.com and no reply.

Ich habe die Unterkunft gewählt, da diese (angeblich) über ein Online Check-In verfügt und ich aufgrund einer Verspätung des Fluges spätabends in Zürich angekommen bin. Den Code um den Schlüssel zu erhalten, habe ich dann aber erst am darauf folgenden Tag erhalten. Dieses Hotel kann nicht empfohlen werden, für kurzfristige Buchungen, da deren "Online Check-In" nicht automatisiert funktioniert und am Abend weder e-Mail noch Telefon bedient ist.
