I felt like I was navigating through a maze with several stairs and fire doors to reach our room, which had a smoking smell.

I was delighted with the comfortable rooms and the nice view from the 'superior' room, although there was a strong smell that opening the window didn't quite solve. The location was excellent, being close to the highway and off the motorway towards Berlin. The dining experience was pleasant with some room for improvement, and I found the traditional shabu-shabu dish a nice touch.

The hotel's location is excellent, close to the highway, making it convenient for travelers. The rooms, though located on the ground floor, are generally fine, but can be a little noisy during workday mornings if the window is left open.
