One star too many

Pros: Location.
Cons: The freshness of the rooms and the breakfest.
Location: Very good location for my purpose. Next to the Congress Centre.
An OK hotel if you are just looking for a place to stay for a night or two. If you are looking for an extaordinary stay this is not the place for you. Good location just some 5 minutes walk from the Havabus (airport bus shuttle) end station. Walls in the room would need to be painted and there were some spider nets in the corners. The bathroom was newely renovated and in very good condition. The staff were patient and friendly when I had some trouble to pay because my creditcard didn't work.
